I recommend the Firefox plugin based on Tidy. It saves you a lot of bother with HTML validators, and is unobtrusive (except in the view source page, which can get slow if the HTML in the page is really badly messed up). http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/ FireBug and the HTML validator are the essential Firefox plugins for developers, I reckon. Broken HTML is the cause of too many weirdnesses and browser incompatibilities already. I don't think there's any reason to encourage it any further by making javascript libraries work around it.
