Agreed. But it's already on my desktop and nsgmls isn't
(or at least is refusing to install and work right thus far)


Anyone care to comment on what Tidy thinks this document _is_ ?

Now I think we can agree that "<!doctype...><div><p>Foo</p></div>" is
probably a valid HTML fragment, but that it's not correct to serve such
things over the web.

Now what's Tidy trying to interpet it as? As far as I can judge, Tidy
think this is _also_ a valid HTML document, albeit one that needs a lot
of implicit content adding to <head> beforehand.  Is this at all
justifiable, or is Tidy completely out to lunch here?
