Yes, that is why I suggested tidy in addition to the other online validators. If one's editor tool doesn't help, tidy is close at hand. Can standardize the coding format. Can help fix errors. Can point out errors. > To me, a content management system only makes sense for a site that is > either large, or has multiple authors.

I really don't like the output of the WYSIWYG HTML editors I've seen. A real text editor with HTML syntax parser for assistance is probably best for anyone willing to read HTML. I think CVS or Subversion /usr/ports/devel/subversion is among the best "content management systems" available. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@HiWAAY.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
