Hi guys.

I'm using quanta in ubuntu.

I'm wondering - is it possible to actually validate html from within quanta?

You'd think that this would be a kinda basic question, but I spent about an hour going over the handbook, docs and user newsgroup archive, and I can't seem to find a desciption of how to do this.
Maybe it's just me, but I can't see this documented.

I can't find a method to do this from the quanta menu's.
I found a description on the web that said that quanta used Tidy to do this.
But how?

If there isn't a simple way to make this happen, is there another way that I can validate locally? Like a tool available from an ubuntu repo that I can set up simply?

Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Silly me.

I remembered that I can just use firefox's web development toolbar.

Still, if anyone can explain how to use quanta, I'd appreciate it.
(I prefer using one tool for one job)
