I validated some of our pages in a XHTML validator and i got some errors for some pages. I wonder whether this has some influence on the search engine spiders? Is it necesarry to get rid of all errors in order to get better indexing results?

I doubt any pages are perfect. Nearly all pages have some errors. Matt Cutts has actually written about this topic, but I do not have a reference handy.

What matters is that your site is CRAWLABLE. Search Engines have a lot to deal with in order to index pages. And with Billions of Pages they are going to make decisions that drop off pages or omit them for other reasons.

Just focus on making sure that your sites are well constructed and can be easily crawled.

Is there some tool to check if a specific page is crawlable? We allready made some major efford: our original site was completly made in flash, but that did not seem to be a good idea. We now converted it to html and we want to be sure that our efford gets rewarded..

"http://seo-browser.com/" I put it in quotes because there are adsense blocks on the page.

It's basically what you are after. Search for "how to see what search engines see" or similar and experiment with site tools until you find a few you like.

It's also a good idea to join Google Webmasters (as much as I despise feeding the Google Machine) for information on what they are seeing direct from the source.
