This argument is nonsense. Arena is able to detect markup errors trivially, and the real (but not very hard) work is in being able to recover from errors. That said, I agree that good server toolkits should include reporting tools for finding problem files, and even fixing them. My "tidy" tool turns bad html into good conformant html, and is available from SoftQuad. -- Dave Raggett <dsr@w3.org> tel: +44 272 228046 fax: +44 272 228003 Hewlett Packard Laboratories, Filton Road, Bristol BS12 6QZ, United Kingdom
