Regarding the discussion with Karl and Biz about XHTML and CSS for layouts (bad sum up: tables are bad, but CSS is hard to implement), I was wondering if there were a simple tool which acts as a proxy, and rewrites html files on the fly to XHTML. Such a tool would be very useful for people with disabilities who use special browsers. I haven't found any tool like this. If you know one tell me. Here is a solution which involves existing tools: Squid as the proxy. Tidy as the cleaner (html to xhtml + cleaning) Something to link Squid and tidy. I don't know what yet, but maybe someone can help? (But maybe a single Perl script could act as the proxy server and call Tidy) I can add that I tried Tidy tonight. I applied it on a fat page. Ramdomly I chose ScriptingNews homepage . With this command: tidy --output-xhtml true --clean true -m scripting.html the resulting transformed page still doesn't validate with the W3C html validation service. So I'm confused with the fact that Tidy doesn't produce 100% comformed XHTML1.0. Strange. Do I miss something? Anyone can help? 11:53:42 PM     http://www.w3.org/People/Raggett/tidy/ 11:41:03 PM     The last post about building WebServices in Radio Userland went into my When XML meets Simplicity weblog. 12:31:33 AM     This is a screenshot of my macOS X terminal with a python script calling the Radio WebService. Guess what... It worked 12:21:19 AM
