IMHO not really. But the killer argument: This validator is not able to validate XHTML. The w3c mentions all limitations on their site (http://openjade.sourceforge.net/doc/xml.htm). IIRC you could also use xmllint to validate the files locally. > See: > > http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs > > vs. > > http://schneegans.de/sv/?url=http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs/ This one was written by Christoph Schneegans to have a fully functional XHTML validator.

Is there a simpler way to do this? I am sorry. Any chance to move to PHP instead of using Javascript (which is also a limitation to the user and text browsers)?
