FREE ESSAY ON TIDY: HTML EDITOR

TIDY: HTML EDITOR

When editing HTML it's easy to make mistakes. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a simple
way to fix these mistakes automatically and tidy up sloppy editing into nicely layed out
markup? Well now there is! Dave Raggett's HTML TIDY is a free utility for doing just
that. It also works great on the atrociously hard to read markup generated by specialized
HTML editors and conversion tools, and can help you identify where you need to pay
further attention on making your pages more accessible to people with disabilities.
Tidy is able to fix up a wide range of problems and to bring to your attention things
that you need to work on yourself. Each item found is listed with the line number and
column so that you can see where the problem lies in your markup. Tidy won't generate a
cleaned up version when there are problems that it can't be sure of how to handle. These
are logged as errors rather than warnings.
