Convert HTML to XHTML?

    I'm hoping you can recommend a tool that will allow me to convert HTML pages to XHTML. I have a pretty large magazine-type site (250 pages or so) so am hoping not to have to do it manually.

    If you know of a good program to do this, I'd love to know about it. Thanks so much.

    cheers ~

    Thanks so much.

    I Googled around and found those same converters, but I was hoping not to use a one-page-at-a-time online converter. I will if I have to, though. Since the site is so large, I was hoping that I could find a program to download which would do pages in a batch.

    I did look at HTML Tidy, which everyone says is great, but it won't download (and there are lots of comments on their download page from other users with the same problem).

    I downloaded this one, but again really couldn't figure out how to use it. When I click on the .exe file, a window briefly pops up then disappears. I would like it to convert a particular folder of html files. http://www.it.uc3m.es/jaf/html2xhtml/

    So, I am stuck. I was hoping someone could recommend some other software I could download which would do this for me.

    Thanks again!
    best,
    Denise

    What is your reasoning for wanting to do this?
