I am using Firefox with the developer tools for validating the
documents. I can get a clean bill of health on there but then when I
paste the document into (as an example) the validator here
http://validator.w3.org/ I get presented with a bunch more issues (such
as the document not being valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional.

That's fine, I have no problems with needing to correct the code, but i
do wonder about the reliability of these checkers - I would assume that
the one at w3.org would be the definitive?

I have also been playing with CSE HTML Validator Lite 3.5, which again
finds errors/warnings that the Firefox validator misses.

Is the Firefox validator just "not quite up to it"?

Appeciate any tips or references to other validation utilities.

Many thanks!
