Abstract

Several factors should be considered to achieve web site validity. The code is written either manually or generated automatically, and errors are inevitable. This is also true for server settings. Errors occur in the markup, in the style sheet, in the XML files, in scripts, and so forth. By analyzing and learning the most common errors, many of them can be eliminated or at least minimized. As a result, they can be recognized, localized, and corrected quickly and efficiently.
