HTML Tidy is a helpful program that tries to help people to correct their HTML errors. It finds HTML errors and classifies them in 3 categories:
- errors: HTML errors that Tidy cannot fix or understand.
- warnings: HTML errors that Tidy can fix automatically
- (optional) accessibility warnings: HTML warnings for the 3 priority levels defined in W3c WAI
There is also an automatic "Clean up" button that will do his best to propose you a cleaned version of your page, without errors.
