Instead i suggest using the validation built into other tools like the web developer extension for firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60 This works faster because it validates (X)HTML, CSS and JavaScript while the page is loading up, on your computer as opposed to online. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416
