RE: Checker isn't valid HTML

Got it--but your URL didn't work for me.  Apparently I'm not allowed to that
port (just a guess).

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fvalidator.w3.org%3A8001%2Fche
ck

That one checks the new validator output using the old validator, and it
passes (since the old validator can reach the new one and I can't).

We did and fixed it some time ago, the current beta release doesn't have
this problem:
<http://validator.w3.org:8001/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fvalidator.w3.org%3A8001
%2Fcheck>
