Hi Kevin,
I think you should get interested to this:
http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/preview_080.html
Mostly the difference between the algorithms. Here:
http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/user_guide.html#Tidy_vs_SGML_parser_
Tidy does an automatic detection of the HTML version
due that most HTML page forget the doctype.
The SGML parser is more strict about this. If the DTDs is
not given at the begining of the page, it is lost.
Given what you explain, you probably are more interested by the SGML parser.
