Actually, I've decided to go a much different direction. Rather than just mask the faulty markup I'm goint to attempt to fix it using jTidy when DocumentException exception gets thrown. Of course that assumes that jTidy will be able to handle any type of invalid markup thrown its way. Anyone on this list have any experience with Tidy? I saw the example code in the dom4j package.
