Could we not use the output of "Enforce proper nesting of HTML" and "HTML error reporting during Preview" to drive new code which would auto-close tags still improperly open at the end of a node, if the writer fails to correct them before submitting? Why? if you, personally, always want to see balanced html tags, then check the box, and you will always see balanced html tags, regardless of who wrote the node, or how diligent they were about balancing their html tags. problem solved. if the nodes where "auto-closed" when they were created, it would be impossible to ever see the "original" node as written, which can be helpful to understand "what the hell was this person trying to say?" Update: Absolute URL since i forgot that link shortcuts don't support relative anchors... http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=17642#display
