Beautify as in does what?  My complaint with so much of the HTML I run
across isn't so much the appearance of the code (of that's what Tidy
works on) so much as how full of errors it is.  It seems that very few
people validate their code, or even are aware that there is such a thing
as a right way to do it.  I'm not happy unless my HTML passes a parser
with zero errors (normally against the W3C HTML 4.0 Transitional DTD),
but that's depressingly uncommon.

Wish I was going to Osaka :-)  I like it down there, but haven't been
for over a year.  Someday maybe I'll transfer down there (our head
office is in Osaka-shi, Nishi-ku).

Later,
