Hi,

I tried to use validateOnly flag. But I found out that punctuation and
symbols checked only as shown here
http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/static.py?hl=en&guide=1308145&topic=1310862&page=guide.cs&answer=176095&rd=2
But stop words are not checked (porn etc.)

Here's request. I decided to use "porn" as stop word:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/
envelope/" xmlns:ns1="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/
v201101" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
  <SOAP-ENV:Header>
    <ns1:RequestHeader xsi:type="ns1:RequestHeader">
      <ns1:authToken>*****</ns1:authToken>
      <ns1:clientEmail>*****</ns1:clientEmail>
      <ns1:developerToken>*****</ns1:developerToken>
      <ns1:userAgent>AwApi-PHP-2.5.1-AwApi-PHP-2.5.1</ns1:userAgent>
      <ns1:validateOnly>true</ns1:validateOnly>
    </ns1:RequestHeader>
  </SOAP-ENV:Header>
  <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <ns1:mutate>
      <ns1:operations>
        <ns1:operator>ADD</ns1:operator>
        <ns1:operand>
          <ns1:adGroupId>3738250425</ns1:adGroupId>
          <ns1:ad xmlns:ns1="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/
v201101" xsi:type="ns1:TextAd">
            <ns1:url>http://xxx.com</ns1:url>
            <ns1:displayUrl>xxx.com</ns1:displayUrl>
            <ns1:headline>Do you want porn?</ns1:headline>
            <ns1:description1>Great porn</ns1:description1>
            <ns1:description2>Fundamentally New</ns1:description2>
          </ns1:ad>
          <ns1:status>PAUSED</ns1:status>
        </ns1:operand>
      </ns1:operations>
    </ns1:mutate>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

There was no any error. But when I added exclamation point to headline
error was generated according to link above.
So, I would like to make sure that content can be validated e.g. stop
words and url corresponds to content.
