When Tidy says "This document has errors that must be fixed before using HTML Tidy to generate a tidied up version", - does it give you a location in the file? - does it say anything about what those errors _are_? General questions: - Take a typical file you want to clean up. How big is it? - How is it encoded (character set)? Did you tell Tidy what that encoding is? - How was the file generated? - Do you have access to a web browser that will tell you about syntax errors? (I have iCab, but that's Mac only, I believe.) The answer is YES YOU DO have access to such a web browser. The World Wide Web Consortium have a browser/editor called Amaya and you can download a Windows version from http://www.w3.org/Amaya/User/BinDist.html (or a Linux version or a Mac OS X version). - What happens if you submit your file to the W3C's validator at validator.w3c.org? If all else fails, - do you have a small example you could post?
