Heres an example warning shown on the Visual studio IDE.
Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Empty elements such as 'meta' must end with />.
Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): The values permitted for this attribute do not include 'left'.
Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Element 'img' is missing required attribute 'alt'.
Does any one knows what tool can automatically checking and correct the tag? Is very time consuming if done manually.
Thank for advise.

Thank.
By the way the tool seem just spot the error but can't do the correction automatically.
The Visual studio itself can spot all the errors, but I'm tire to correct them one by one because sometime can up to 200+
e.g
<img src="http://www.w3.org/Ico
1. Elements such as 'img' must end with />.
2. Element 'img' is missing required attribute 'alt'.
correct
<img src="http://www.w3.org/Ico
Maybe I'm wrong because I'm just briefly test out the tool, if you know how to configue the tool to auto correct above error, please let me know. Thank
Hi, Kravimir
You are right. Changed the Tidy Configuration will help. Thank.
output-xhtml
Type: Boolean
Default: no <-- Change to 'yes'
Example: y/n, yes/no, t/f, true/false, 1/0
This option specifies if Tidy should generate pretty printed output, writing it as extensible HTML. This option causes Tidy to set the DOCTYPE and default namespace as appropriate to XHTML. If a DOCTYPE or namespace is given they will checked for consistency with the content of the document. In the case of an inconsistency, the corrected values will appear in the output. For XHTML, entities can be written as named or numeric entities according to the setting of the "numeric-entities" option. The original case of tags and attributes will be preserved, regardless of other options.
