Edit the CSS Validator

I'm curious to look at the open source code for the W3C CSS Validator.

Don't get me wrong, I have no desire to learn and work with Java but I'd like to be able to open up a JAR file and see all the cookies...err code without the random static I get.

I downloaded jEdit and it seems no more useful then say, notepad.

Suggestions?

This would be intended for a live website not a development scenario. Unless I'm missing something here though I'm just going off of what I'm seeing on Wikipedia.

Try renaming it to .zip and decompressing it with winrar.

Perhaps I could manually $_POST it from the server and create a very simple site scrapper that checks the h3 element that displays the result?

Though I'd prefer to execute it through a more graceful manner if possible?

Oh, thanks for the RAR info astions!

If you're referring to the validator API, I responded on it in your *other* thread on the same subject.
