page validation is an illusion, because there are no "web standards" except for what the browsers implement. Browsers will *always* have to accept the old age HTML markup, as well as the abortion that's called XHTML, now HTML5, and so on - basically *anything* that was at any time widely used, even if it was outright mistaken. This means that making your page respect an imaginary standard gives no results except than a pretty badge. Rather than striving towards such an ideal, I find it much more useful (dare I say suckless) to make your web markup as *minimalist* as possible (e.g. no closing tags, no quotes where you can skip them, no CSS, no JS, the simplest <=HTML4 formatting). This will make your page work on all browsers forever, and as a bonus, make it easily processible with external tools (and the user can still specify any kind of custom style they want).
