Converting HTML to XHTML in Dreamweaver MX

Didn’t know about this feature till I read this article - http://builder.com.com/5100-6371_14-5061538.html

Converting HTML to XHTML in Dreamweaver MX

You can also use Dreamweaver MX to convert existing HTML files to XHTML 1.0 Transitional. After opening an HTML file in Dreamweaver, select File | Convert | XHTML. If Dreamweaver encounters code it can’t convert, such as <img> tags without alt text, it provides a report at the end of the conversion process. From there, you can manually repair the offending code.
