Gah. I'd first sent this from the wrong domain. My bad.

One of my wish lists is for better XHTML syntax checking.

Well, you can use WOBuilder (I tend not to, but then I've been hand-coding
HTML for 10 years, so anything more complex than BBEdit just gets in the
way).
I used it at first, then edited to suit in BBEdit.
Lately, I'm on a kick for XHTML/CSS, though, and WOBuilder doesn't have
great support for that, though it does do some rudimentary tag-checking.
To give an idea of the order of magnitude of the problem, a medium-sized
page that passes WOBuilder's syntax checking has 375 errors in the w3
validator (checking XHTML 1.0 strict):
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=
Granted, some of them are simply it not grokking WO tags, but that's
relatively few of the errors.
For HTML 4.01 Transitional, though, it does syntax check just fine.
