Hi Muriel The first thing to note is that the W3C Validator [1] is alpha and is now very much out of date and should not be relied upon. You'll find more up to date mobile validators at ready.mobi [2] and TAW [3]. As to the best editor to use, that is a matter of taste I think and I'd defer to those who have stronger opinions than me on this matter, though I would agree that there is a shortage of good tools for mobile, right now.

I tested my website with the validator and it returned the messages below, the geeks will know which editor to use but the rest of us wanna-bees will be willing to be compliant but obviously will need a hint to stay on the WC3 straight and narrow. My site returned: This page failed on 2 tests 1. The page is not XML well-formed. This test is related to the following Best Practices: VALID_MARKUP (techniques) 2. The page is served with a Last-Modified header, but the server doesn't validate conditional requests. This test is related to the following Best Practices: CACHING (techniques I will address the caching issue with my IP, Any Advice you give on the Mark-up/Coding/Web-Editors is greatly appreciated and I hope you address it (web-editors) in your Working Group. I will be posting the: http://www.w3.org/2006/Talks/mwbp-ac-tutorial.html#(3) http://validator.w3.org/mobile/ http://www.w3.org/QA/Tools/#validators To a site reference review website, about 3000 have read my (wannabee) posts; so the word on your efforts and WC3 will in a small way, continue to get out.
