Show HTML errors in Google Chrome?

Question

Can Google Chrome show HTML errors (e.g. unclosed <div> tags)?

If so, how does one do it?

Solution 1

~Use HTML Validator extension.~

Solution 2

Another options is to use the W3C validator "favelets" to open the W3C validator from a bookmark.

I'm not sure it can do exactly what you're after without an extension. You can use the developer tools to explore the HTML to see if it is what you expect/intend, but I don't think it will tell you where there are errors.

HTML browsers are designed to be able to taken invalid markup and render it as best they can. It will have a very high tolerance for errors.

You may want to try an extension like one of these.
