  • What is weblint

    Weblint is a perl script that checks for errors in your html files. It can be configured to be anywhere from lenient to very picky on what it checks for. You can change the "kind of" html you are checking (2.0,3.0,mozilla) by changing the perl script itself, or using a .weblintrc file. See the weblint(1L) man page for more information.
