Script for finding XML errors

[Nathan Hadfield]

In case it helps anyone else, here's a little bash script I wrote to find HTML files with XML errors and to print summary totals. (It calls tidy, which is included in Leopard.) Since we have a ton of files that need to be validated for proper XML, I'm using this to get a high- level view of how many files are OK and how many still have errors.

You use it like this:

        xmlcheck [directory]





        xmlcheck -h

for help.

(Source below. Also attached.)

It will find all .html files under the directory and identify any with XML formatting problems. To see other options (show errors/warnings only, show verbose messages), use

xmlcheck
