I have been checking over the website of a company I am interviewing with tomorrow morning for a web development position. There are a number of errors on the site that could easily be fixed (asdf next to a word, poorly formed href tag, etc). Should I tell them about it in the interview?

Update 5/22/03
I interviewed for this almost a month ago and just found out today I got the job. I start wednesday. Pay is nice, location is great, rent will be cheap, fun work (php and asp). I'm psyched.

Oh, just so you know, I didn't mention the errors on their site in the interview. I'll wait until I've received my first paycheck to tell them.

I wouldn't go pointing out errors unless it had something to do with the conversation.

no vote...if the person you are being interviewed by has anything to do with the site, he will take offense to it...if he doesnt, then he would appreciate the comments

I meet with the head hunter that is sending me on this interview first. The company they are sending me to is their best client. I will ask them what they think too.
