Someone pointed out that the page had errors but after running thru tidy it was readable.... And of course error-tolerence is not a current priority for the Amaya project..... However, since tidy does a reasonable job of making many pages at least useable, could not a mechanism be placed in Amaya where an icon would run a function to pass the current file thru tidy to get a display ..... It would appear to user to be similar to REFRESH, but instead of a refetch it puts the page thru the fixer.... This would allow testers to immediately identify whether problem is Amaya or page designer's Admittedly one can download page and test with tidy or run over to validator.w3.org and submit url for check but a nice push icon and good display means its yet another authoring error ... and not Amaya This type of function would also appeal to surfer type who just wants to get to data without technical hassle... I think integration of tidy.exe would be win-win situation John Russell, VE3LL@RAC.CA http://www.cgocable.net/~jrussel Mystery readers may want to click on DOROTHYL
