  DESCRIPTION

HTML::Validator is a module that checks the validity of HTML (or SGML)
files. For this is uses nsgmls and document type definition (aka dtd) files.
LWP is used to validate files obtained from the web.

A sample validator script is provided with the module.


  REQUIREMENTS

The needed non-perl files are:

 - nsgmls (see <URL:http://www.jclark.com/sp/howtoget.htm>)

 - dtd files (not included). I use W3C's SGML library, which can be downloaded
   from <URL:http://validator.w3c.org/sgml-lib.tar.gz>
