Best way to validate code?

[Emma]

Now that I've changed the permalinks. I want my code to validate. I have about 27 errors. Some are little things like closing tags. Before I dive into this does anyone have any hints or tips about fixing code so it validates properly?

well , what are the errors? =) a lot of times its something really little like i always get errors because it sys i dont have a name for my images.

I'll have to get back to you with specifics. I guess I'll just start going through them one at a time. I don't think I'll have time to do it today. I was hoping maybe someone had some words of wisdom. I'll just be careful, back up, etc. Thanks!

If you use Firefox I would have recommend firebug (http://www.getfirebug.com/). I use it all of the time and it's sooo nice!

Yeah the web developer toolbar is also a great one. Anyone who is a web developer or wants to tinker with their own code should have one.
