Yes, this should be the first port of call for every web page prior to being
uploaded to a public server. If you use Firefox, there's an extension called
HTML Validator that validates your pages locally so that you can debug them
there and then without sending them to the W3C one (it's based on HTMLTidy).
It puts a little icon in the bottom right of the status area showing you
instantly when there are any warnings or errors. It's also good for getting
an idea about where other site's pages are at in terms of compliance.
