    I usually have valid CSS and XHTML on the final version of my sites.

    XHTML 1.0 transitional and CSS2 valid as well as meeting a fair number of 501 standards (accessibility standards) and I try to make my code as clean as possible (my editor has Tidy integrated into it, tab indenting and other stuff to make this quicker for me to do).
    Also, I don't use tables for the page layout.

    I comply with standards when it makes the code clean. But I don't stress over compliancy. For example, I sometimes use the non-standard '-moz-border-radius' CSS property on some elements. While this is not compliant, it gives a nice effect for Moz browsers and doesn't degrade the experience for anyone else.

    I try to make all of my code 100% XHTML compliant. I generally dont bother too much with making the CSS 100% although I dont stray too far from the guidelines.

    Scite, HTML-Kit or my own when I get around to actually building parts of it, but it's based on scintilla anyway (scite is a demo of what can be done with scintilla, but it's become well known in it's own right).

    I go for 100% valid XHTML....However sometimes if I have to have things that allow my code to not be valid no matter what I do I try to place them all on one non-valid page...

    I have even gone through the hedaches of making Flash coded into a site XHTML valid and cross browser compatiable...albiet it uses java which I personally HATE....

    As long as I'm not doing things hugely wrong, I'm not too concerned. For example, if i define <div id='normal'>TEXT<div> and then do it again right next to it... I'm not going to freak. But if i have something in a form or table messed up... then it's time to worry.
    That's why I love server-side scripting... I know it's going to work out the same for everyone - not depending on what browser they use.
