RE: Xhtml

Then you either found a bug with HTML Tidy or you are relying on non-standard HTML to create your tables.

RE: Xhtml

The tag start here line refers to the bug presented on the line above. It's just telling you that the tag that is in error started there.

RE: Xhtml

Please submit URL to your page, and we will try to figure it out. Note: XHTML Strict is very restrictive, so you won't be able to use some standard tags, like for example target=""

that is because there is no attribute
named 'bgcolor' in xhtml. you should use CSS to style your xhtml..

i don't know if there is a tool, but i know a way: go to the w3c site, read the xhtml specs http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/ and fix your markup..

XHTML 1.0 Strict is old news.
Why not go for XHTML 1.1

Check my site.

If you have ambitions try XHTM 2.0 and prepare for a nightmare

RE: Xhtml

Unfortunately no. XHTML 2.0 is not backward compatible...

In other words, not many people are going to use it any time soon

RE: Xhtml

Yes, some do produce valid XHTML. Try Dreamweaver MX 2004, in most of the cases you'll get 100% valid code. It also has excellent PHP code highlighting. If you have ~600 euros extra, you may even buy it
