I'm using the TidyUI standalone from the Tidy sourceforge community (http://tidy.sourceforge.net/), which is very good, but the JTidy port has been abandoned - how awfull!
But "the namespace problem" - that was one of my reasons, too. When should one use the TidySerializer? --------------------------------------- 1) As a fix for the "the namespace problem" 2) When human-readable HTML output is needed 3) To validate the output to a dtd --> otherwise, use the HTMLSerializer I *am* a little worried about the fact that the JTidy community has died; we'll miss their backup. But I do think the TidySerializer is good think next to the traditional HTMLSerializer, because Tidy does things to you HTML that might leave it in a non-machine-readable state. For example; we're running CHTML pages (i-mode) live from Cocoon, and those damn i-mode browsers won't take code that isn't aligned to the left (aargh?!). Bruno?
