Is there an add-on to IE that will automatically check that a Web page
conforms to some HTML standards? Something like the W3C validator, but that
will automatically check every Web page I browser using IE.

Or maybe a program to do those validations?

Thanks.
 
Sean,

I'm a developer, and I'm looking for such a tool to help me validate all my
Web pages. I could use a validator at W3C Web site, but that is hard work.
Also, because my Web app is very dynamic (generates many different HTML
depending on input criteria and such), it is impossible to test all my Web
pages by sending the HTML to a validator. It would be good if IE provided a
switch to display error messages if a Web page does not validate to its
specified HTML standard (I think this is asking a LOT though, because I
don't think the Microsoft guys know the standards, they just invent whatever
'standard' they want :)).

Have you ever tried sticking in a DOCTYPE header for XHTML
and then renaming your file from *.htm to *.xml? ;o
