Comment (by sparkopro):

 To see before-and-after examples of the output from force_balance_tags(),
 you can create a small test plugin or theme where you manually call the
 function and output the results. Here's a simple example of how you might
 do this:

 {{{
 function test_force_balance_tags_shortcode($atts, $content = null) {
     // Output before force balancing
     $before = $content;
     // Force balance tags
     $after = force_balance_tags($content);

     return
 "<h2>Before:</h2><pre>$before</pre><h2>After:</h2><pre>$after</pre>";
 }
 add_shortcode('test_balance', 'test_force_balance_tags_shortcode');

 }}}
