EmbPerl does not validate html.
I once heard that the reason that Natscape was so bloated, was because
that it tries to render these things correctly. i.e. anticipate bad
html syntax.
you could use LWP (Lib-www) and a html validator found here www.w3.org
to procativaly test the output of your dynamic pages.
