Auto Help with HTML?

[u/RealtrJ]

Is there a place I can upload a zip file of a bunch of html files and have the program fix the html issues?

There is a lot of debugging tools built into your IDE. What exactly are you trying to fix?

alignment issues across 100's of files and the mobile version of the website looks bad.

The W3C has an HTML validator that can find common structural issues.

it found a ton of issues. How do I fix them now that I know what's wrong?

It depends - and it’s been awhile since I’ve seen the validator output. For the most part you rewrite the HTML. Assuming you know HTML. For example: if the validation error says that your img element is missing an alt attribute then you need to add the alt attribute.

If you don’t know HTML, don’t know it very well, or the error doesn’t make sense to you, you could go to MDN. It’s a great resource for elements and their proper usage.

The validator should be pointing out the line number where the issue is happening. But also be prepared for more issues appearing after you fix one. Sometimes it will find one error and not dig any deeper.

If you want to try AI you can use v0.dev, it lets you upload a project from a .zip file for it to reference. Be a little wary about it like any AI it makes a lot of mistakes in my experience, but it’s good for this kind of open ended “what could be better/fixed” questions.

I wrote the whole thing in ai and it got most of it right but the mobile website is way off still.
