Hey sven,

There is, actually: http://www.validator.ca, this validates an entire website.

However, if you are working on a localhost, that will not work (obviously).

Unless you are putting a bunch of HTML in the content when editing you only need to validate a page with the template that is being used, like if you have 3 templates do a page for each template...

Like Mark said, If you are using CMSMS then the content from the wysiwyg editor is always compliant, and then you just need to check your design...

If you have any pages with heavy code inserts then check those individually.

basically the validation should be modular (up to a point): you can break the page down into design, content and code and if each validate individually there should be no problem when you combine them,

(obviously the content will be missing all the basic page tags but I think you can catch my drift)
