[Mozile] XHTML validation?

[James A. Overton]

Hi Simon,

The goal for Mozile 0.8 is validation with every editing operation,  
so the document is never in an invalid state. You're right that  
Bitflux does this already; I'm not sure how active their development  
is at the moment.

Mozile 0.8 can output HTML style uppercase tags as well as XHTML  
style lower case tags, depending on the settings. See the  
mozile.save.format property: http://mozile.mozdev.org/0.8/doc/html/ 
ch01s03.html#SavingChanges

As aways, if anyone has the time to hack at Mozile, I'm happy to  
answer questions and get you up to speed. I won't have time to do  
much hacking of my own this month.

James
