One problem I forsee is that the listing of open elements will be distracting for a great many error messages, and misleading for a few of the rest, leaving the net benefit from this rather less than initially envisioned. If you want to take a stab at this, getting open elements information is a simple commandline switch to onsgmls; and you'll need to modify the error output parsing as well as the HTML display code to implement it. Just as a reminder; the error parsing code is, as you know, very fragile. So thread carefully when you modify it! - -- "Temper Temper! Mr. Dre? Mr. NWA?
