Hi James,

Sorry for the time to answer but I got no access to mail for a long time.

In short, the only way to force the HTML version used by the extension 
is to use the 0.8x version in SGML.
And set the DTD to the 3.2 version, something like this at the begin of 
your HTML.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">

Anyway,
In the case of Tidy, Tidy chooses the algorithm and check the HTML on a 
guess trick. I think there is no way to force the version used. The 
options are here, I do not think there is an option for this: 
http://tidy.sourceforge.net/docs/quickref.html

Hope it helps,  and Happy New Year !
