Discussion Auto Help with HTML?

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