That's what has always amazed me! One of the very best tools for learning proper HTML coding has been available online at the W3C.org site for a long time.

It's an unforgiving teacher, but a fair one. And... it doesn't hold grudges! Once your code validates it awards you with a certificate! ;)

I wonder how many coding problems could be "figured out" if the coder simply made uses of a validation service? Not only does it tell you what is wrong... it also teaches the proper terminology.

Once you develop a taste for <!doctype> and validation, you will want to apply it to all of your pages.
