Is it possible to test partial html?

My interest in this plugin is to validate HTML partials from a textarea in a CMS. Is there a parser option to allow for partial HTML testing? If I validate only the partial HTML I get the following errors.

"Element “head” is missing a required instance of child element “title”."
"Start tag seen without seeing a doctype first. Expected “<!DOCTYPE html>”."

This is understandable as this is testing a full HTML page. I found a workaround by wrapping the HTML with html/title/body tags, but it would more convenient to allow for partial HTML checking.

Thanks!

I agree, but the API does not support this. I also solved it by wrapping it in a well-formed document, for what it's worth.
