Check if HTML snippet is valid with Javascript

Question

I need a reliable Javascript library / function to check if a HTML snippet is valid that I can call from my code. For example, it should check that opened tags and quotation

Answer 1

It depends on js-library which you use.

Html validatod for node.js https://www.npmjs.com/package/html-validator

Html validator for jQuery https://api.jquery.com/jquery.parsehtml/

But, as mentioned before, using the browser to validate broken HTML is a great idea:

function tidy(html) {
    var d = document.createElement('div');
    d.innerHTML = html;
    return d.innerHTML;
}
