I´ve just installed the latest beta release and I have some comments about bugs and features:

1. I think there is to many warnings generated in HTML, since browsers are very tolerant with such

Warning: ‘script’ element lacks “type”

.
others: table element lacks summary, img element lacks alt

2. It does not recognized uppercase (or mixed-case) attribute names in tags.
Ex.: inside <meta>

Warning: unknown attribute “CONTENT”

and inside <span>

Warning: unknown attribute “onClick”

.

I will keep on trying and testing and posting.

I think there is to many warnings generated in HTML, since browsers are very tolerant with such.

While that may be true, the purpose of a tool is to let you know when you’re violating the spec (error) or when you’re going against a recommendation in the spec (warning). That’s what you’re seeing here. We’re using the W3C’s validator, so the warnings are as interpreted by the authors of the spec, not by us. However, since browsers are tolerent of most and you seem like they are bothering you, you can always turn off the display of warnings at Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Editors > JSP/HTML Editor > HTML Formatting and Validation > Show warnings. Also, you can remove existing markers by right-clicking on your project and selecting MyEclipse > Remove HTML Problem markers.
