I have Julia code that creates an html document, but this document is not valid. I can use the external program **tidy** to fix it, like this:

```julia

line 3 column 1 - Warning: inserting implicit <body>
line 8 column 1 - Warning: inserting implicit <p>

Is there any Julia package that can do a similar job?
