Hi, I noticed a bit of a problem in the web validator. The following page does not trigger the desired error message: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <a href=http://validator.w3.org/>Test</a> </body></html> The key bit is the unquoted url in the anchor tag. I would have expected the message "an attribute value must be a literal unless it contains only name characters". Instead, it does not complain about the opening tag's characters, and it uses the final slash to close the anchor tag. Instead, I get a "end tag for element 'A' which is not open" message. I'm sorry that I don't have time to submit more than a bug report at the moment; hopefully this will sufficiently interest someone else to work on a patch. Thanks for a great application!
