Seeking whole site HTML validator (plus extras)

There are many good HTML validators, not least, of course being
w3c's. However, they only handle one page at a time.

Is there a free web based served, or pc program, which will crawl my
site validating the HTML?

Bonus features like CSS validation, link checking, spell checking, etc
are welcome of course, but most important for me at the moment is HTML
validation.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Not "all in one" but http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/ has among other
tools, a HTML validator that can validate the entire site.

Thanks. I think that I will have to go with that. It doesn't do the
whole site, crawling from the frontpage. it has a batch mode whcih will
hadle a bunch of URLs, but I can qiuckly use my sitemap to make such a
list.

Thanks for the tip.

Did you checked the "Validate entire site" checkbox? That validated
the whole site I tested.

If you don't mind paying $25 for the software, check out aRealValidator.com.

Go with what?

The WDG validator (http://www.htmlhelp.com/) will. If you have more then 100
pages, download and install a local copy and turn the limiter off.
