Usage should be possible. To test it, create a file called phpinfo.php
with content:

<? phpinfo(); ?>

Save and upload it and call it in your favourite browser. I will try to
write a short function, which tests on the files available in the
directory and then adds the necessary icons and messages. It should be
not that problem.

Yes, I know. But I can't see any advantage at the moment. You have more
work with writing XML-files and converting them to HTML with a
self-written XSL stylesheet than e.g. directly writing HTML. The syntax
used in the XML-files is mainly based on HTML.

That's true (of course). Personally I would like to see a solution,
which also makes it easy to translate the sites.

You should use the W3C validator:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jmol.org

There is no limitation, the service is free and provided my the W3C, the
consortium who publishes the recommendations.

Have a look at the above site. If the produced code should be XHTML,
then use http://schneegans.de/sv/ - the XHTML-validator from the W3C has
some limitations, the validator from Christoph Schneegans should work
properly.
