the only thing i was hoping to catch that you didn't was a non-closing tag
with a trailing slash without the optional leading space. i know the
leading space is optional, but without it some browsers hork badly. so, i'd
like to catch <br/> as invalid and convert to <br />. my guess is this will
likely need to be an entirely separate check though.
other than that i found what you put together to be awesome. thanks a ton.
i'll be playing around with that today to see what i can do with it.
thanks,
