    <thetext>I&apos;m using a component that detects the user argent, and outputs different HTML 
accordingly. This seems reasonable. However - since the user-agent returned  
by your system doesn&apos;t pick one of the fully-supported ones (e.g. MSIE) - it 
falls back to assume you have an ancient browser, and emits non-modern-
standard tags - like NOBR - which you then complain about.

I suggest a popup (option/select) to specify which user-agent you want the 
validator to simulate.</thetext>

    <thetext>done via extra parameter: http://validator.w3.org/docs/users.html#option-user-agent

Did not add to the UI since this is a rare usage that does not currently seem to justify UI clutter.</thetext>
