using output=json does not show warnings

Hello,

I am checking pages using the following curl command:

curl -sF 'uploaded_file= <at> test.html;type=text/html' -F output=json  
http://validator.w3.org/check

This is the output I get:

{
     "url": "test.html",
     "messages": [

           {
               "lastLine": 12,
               "lastColumn": 26,
               "message": "end tag for element \"em\" which is not  
open",
               "messageid": "79",
               "explanation": "    <p class=\"helpwanted\">\n      <a 
\n        href=\"feedback.html?uri=;errmsg_id=79#errormsg\"\n\ttitle= 
\"Suggest improvements on this error message through our feedback  
channels\" \n      >&#x2709;</a>\n    </p>\n\n    <div class=\"ve  
mid-79\">\n    <p>\n      The Validator found an end tag for the  
above element, but that element is\n      not currently open. This is  
often caused by a leftover end tag from an\n      element that was  
removed during editing, or by an implicitly closed\n      element (if  
you have an error related to an element being used where it\n      is  
not allowed, this is almost certainly the case). In the latter case 
\n      this error will disappear as soon as you fix the original

Whatever the situation may have been on October 29 when the original 
message was sent, the page specified now validates - though, 
interestingly, "as XHTML 1.0 Frameset", and it indeed carries such a 
DOCTYPE declaration (not Transitional).

AFAIU this was a transient issue caused by lack of disk space on one of
the validator servers.

[VE][html5] Incorrect error message for ARIA role menuitem validation

Hi,

I can't give a public URI for this example, as I was testing a local  
page.  But the markup in question looked like this:

	<ul role="menubar">
		<li role="menuitem"><strong>Home</strong></li>
		<li role="menuitem"><a href="#">Portfolio</a></li>
		<li role="menuitem"><a href="#">Stuff</a></li>
		<li role="menuitem"><a href="#">About</a></li>
		<li role="menuitem"><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
	</ul>

The validator flagged multiple errors for that markup, each with the  
error message "An element with role=menuitem requires role=menu on the  
parent"

However that is not correct -- an element with role=menuitem can have  
either "menu" or "menubar" as its parent role.

thanks,

James Edwards

Thanks for reporting this. I think I have it fixed now.

In other words, don't use "/>" to close <img> tags in HTML 4.01 
Transitional.

My reading of the facts, puts the blame on the validator: It would not 
matter very much if the HTML4 validator had stopped issuing that 
warning. Especially now that HTML5 allows the use of "/>" to close 
<img> tags. But even per HTML4's rules,  it is only a warning and not 
an error.
