Hi, David,

The main issue's closing tags. It shouldn't be hard to ensure all tags 
within a given comment are closed (or just append close tags as required). 
I'm just thinking building a tag stack with RegExps, I don't know of any 
extra cool XML-grokking fixer-upper, though such may exist.

Here's one site-wide problem, in the footer.
<a href="http://www.rubyonrails.org">Ruby on Rails</p>.
</body>
If this was in a comment and needed to be automatically fixed, </a> needs to 
be inserted before </p>I'm not sure about the legality of the . after the 
</p> It sucks being a pedant. Sorry about all this, I just hope it 
helps.Great work with Rails etc, I'm just starting a small project with it 
now.Cheers,Dave
