"Your HTML is not well formed"

I, like many Im sure get this problem, however for the non-HTML savvy of us, correcting it can be a pain.

So, to help fix it, maybe, either;

1.Highlighting HTML/ BBCode tags in the html editor (Im thinking something like the 'View Source' option that firefox has with the tags colourized.)

2. Highlighting errors in the HTML which would help people both find the problem faster (It's a damn pain finding those mistakes!) and to put it right easier.

Just seems like a sensible thing to do to me. I imagine the first of my suggestions would be easier to put into action though; either way, it would help users.

Just my 2 cents.

So you don't even need help? Don't worry, man, stuff like this is covered in Welcome Newbies.mariomaniac92

Stuff like what? HTML? I know all the basics of it, it just takes a while to find the mistakes sometimes when you're looking at a block of text in the editor.

Colourizing tags would just help make them a little more noticeable 

yer we help sort out this stuff over in WN...having unclosed tags highlighted would certainly be handy tho...in the case of both html and BBCode..as i tend to find that even things like 'sizeable' inside the BBCode brackets ([]s) will cause such an error to appear, despite 'sizeable' not actually being a BBCode tag ('size' is tho, so it's understandable why it may consider it a tag)robbristow

This is off-topic, but my personal opinion is that HTML should be required in the core curriculum of the world's school systems.  HTML is as easy to learn as tying your shoes and it has multiple practical uses that would come in handy for just about everyone on the planet, especially now that the digital age is here to stay.  In addition, CSS and XHTML should be taught as electives.
