Actually you have a good point there!

Check the site next week. I just integrated opensp 1.5 into our tool
(having spent months trying to figure out why nsgmls.exe didn't give
quite the same results as the W3C validator... all those cascading
entity errors). I probably should have asked on this very forum, but
did not.

The Validity world cup... hmmm, yea. Will give you credit for that idea
when the list is up!

It's all automated and the validator theoretically works under the same
batch.... but will check all this before posting. On another forum I
am getting strung up for some sloppy programming in that table, though
actually the page developer is not here to take the heat!

Best wishes,

John
