Does anybody have some simple code to validate HTML pages, mainly proper tag nesting Thanks

tag nesting? I don't. But I do have my HTML dialect written in Rebol, that way I don't have to worry about getting the end tag right. It's available on my site. Andrew Martin ICQ: 26227169 http://valley.150m.com/

Hi, JM, http://tidy.sourceforge.net/ has been around for quite some time. Unless you have an absolute need to embed the cleanup code in a larger function, this would save some wheel-reinventing... -jn-

-- ; sub REBOL {}; sub head ($) {@_[0]} REBOL [] # despam: func [e] [replace replace/all e ":" "." "#" "@"] ; sub despam {my ($e) = @_; $e =~ tr/:#/.@/; return "\n$e"} print head reverse despam "moc:xedef#yleen:leoj" ;

Thanks Joel. I actually was looking for Rebol code but it looks like using Tidy with Rebol/Command is a quicker solution ! ( I was planning to write some simple code; I even read your article 'Recursion, Iteration and Algebra' to get some ideas )

I looked at your HTML dialect plus another one available in a Rebsite. I want to be able to validate any HTML written in Rebol or not and R should be great for such a job but looking at how much work is in Tidy it is not worth it reinventing the wheel .. As far as HTML dialects goes, I am not convinced they save lots of time vs using tag blocks or strings Jose

using tag blocks or strings My HTML dialect is best used for wrapping around my eText dialect, which is used repeatedly in my Site creation dialect (which works of files and directories). It's basically a matter of using the right tools for all the jobs. Andrew Martin ICQ: 26227169 http://valley.150m.com/
