Version 3 of the Online Validator is a major upgrade from the previous version (2.08). The most significant change is that the validation data is now collected in a unified database (previously most validation data was stored in a per-file database). This change allows us to flexibly combine information from the submitted data, issues raised, and different data sets in order to provide more useful feedback on within file issues and report on cross dataset validations. The significant new feature in this release which relies on the new data store is the "Skeleton Entity Data Set" rules. These compare the entity structure of each MDS against a unified structure in order to ensure consistency between the data sets.The Validator user interface has also undergone a complete revamp, improving the look of the application and making it significantly more intuitive to navigate.Below is a more detailed list of the improvements included in this release.

  • Unified database utilising PostgreSQL
  • Complete UI revamp
    • The upload form gives pre and during upload feedback on compatible browsers
    • Consolidated reporter interface
  • Remember users' user agent string, display in user details (i.e. which browser type is used).
  • Skeleton Entity Data Set (SKL) support and associated rules added (01.50 and 01.60)
    • non-matching entities reports added to assist in understanding SKL issues
  • NOCC version 01.61 and associated rules added
  • CMHC version 04.60 and associated rules added
  • RMHC version 04.60 and associated rules added
  • MHE version 01.60 and associated rules added
  • Lots of bug fixes, improvements, and adjustments to rules associated with all file types.
  • Lots of minor improvements and bug fixes to validator functionality.

Note that in this release we have dropped support for Internet Explorer 6 and 7 due to security and functionality limitations. We believe that all users have access to more modern browsers however if this is incorrect please contact support@validator.com.au to discuss this with us.
