@Philip: I created this using MooTools because I have future aspirations for it, like having a “correct” method that would, for example, replace [b] tags with [strong] tags.

You could use this as a bookmarklet too. That’s be neat.

One tag I found sorely missing is embed. Everyone seems to think the way to put flash in is use the embed tag, but its useless and invalid!

i love mootools, but why use JavaScript when you can just use CSS to achieve the same goal?Check out Eric Meyer's Diagnostic CSS file: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/diagnostics/index.html

I think Adam, hit it right on the head. This would be awesome for a CMS. You should make the ‘bad’ class a little bit more bad, maybe something like magenta with flashing text.

If only we had a “virus” that could run this on all web pages. Ahhh, the day.

I think this could be a great class to add on to a CMS. Specifically when your clients are updating the site – If the preview showed invalid markup to be ugly as sin then the client might think twice.

David – amazing work!!!
