Hello everyone,

Anybody aware of any tools that can check html syntax? The problem I'm
facing now is a page does not show very right (e.g. a text line
protruding out of the right page border). It seems like some tag does
not close or something.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or ideas.

Tidy is a lint, not a parser. It will catch a number of
careless errors. You may want a sgml checker such a nsgmls:
finding one for you platform is a google exercise.

I have not seen as far as others because giants were standing on my shoulders.
