For the first time reader it may be a bit strange to read article 4: "The Web standards model - HTML, CSS and JavaScript", and then read this article just to find out that JavaScript was left out of the equation. I know that there is no official JavaScript validator out there -- maybe there could not be a complete validator due to the use of "eval()" -- but it should be worth while mentioning some of the unofficial ones or other techniques for checking JavaScript (the core language and DOM usage).
