This is a very handy little widget. 
After you install it, open Firefox; right click on the triangular icon
at the bottom right corner of the page. Select Show > Icon and Text. Now
right click again and select Options. This is where you can select a
level of accessibility for your checker.

To use:
Open a page with Firefox. Double-click the icon/text area to open the
source code. Select any error or warning on the bottom left side of the
page and the tool will highlight that area in the code. The Help area on
the right will explain the warning with links to WCAG and WAI.

Subject: [Accessibility_sig] Cool tool for Firefox


Good morning folks,

A lot of you may have seen this already, but I wanted to share a tool
with you that a friend turned me on to at the AIR rally this past
weekend.  It is an HTML validator with tidy built in plus a few other
cool features.  I really like this because it works on local source
code.

Thanks to Kathy Keller for telling me about this.
