OK, few more comments after trying the validator: 1. the "address" term on the pop-up is confusing; maybe better as "link"? 2. my example had only one error, which makes this incorrect: "Oops, I found 1 errors." Maybe change last word in template to "error(s)"?
And just a question: does this include a web server aspect? If yes, I say we move it to the main site, per your suggestion.
