What's the point? - fgsoft

Online validators do not have many of the features that Flamin'[404] does have. For example, you cannot start the online validator for a large site and then have it email you the results. Online validators are also known to crash when checking sites with 100+ items/links. And finally, who wants to type in a long URL everytime they want to check a URL. Flamin'[404] also has an auto-checking feature-- so you can schedule when to actually check your site for errors.
