Please post your HTML DTD. TimBL will be needing to update the DTD
for the RFC.

Grab the parser out of Mosaic and use it as a translator to spit back out
clean HTML.
I have to agree that it would be nice if all documents worked
reasonably everywhere and I think the only way to do that is for
everyone to stick closely to the DTD. Otherwise you have the
NCSA Mosaic dialect, and the Lynx dialect etc. In the initial
stages I don't think this was as important as it is now, we
needed the ability to experiment. If we want wider acceptance
of the Web we need to all agree on the syntax and if we to play
SGML then we need to make that syntax fit in the DTD (no matter
how ugly it makes the DTD).
