best HTML validator/parser?

Question

I have a large HTML file, and it looks like some tags are not closed. It's hard to find it. I am using VIM as the editor.

Is there any good way to find it?

Answer 1

You can validate your html using http://validator.w3.org/

Just make sure you specify the DOCTYPE correctly and it'll find anything that is invalid.

Answer 2

I assume you are on running Linux?! If so, you could try Eclipse

It is a complete IDE, which will help you in many cases and make programming a lot more efficient

Answer 3

Just use Notepad++. It is free and light weight code editor, and I already found many unclosed tags in my html with it...

Answer 4

HTML Validator (extension for Firefox) has helped me in the past. You need to load the page in the browser to find the errors.

Answer 5

If you can put you code online you could try Dr. Watson.

Answer 6

Another validator to try is the CSE HTML Validator. The online version is here: http://www.OnlineWebCheck.com/
