Maybe I should test these things in something other that IE

But even then I wouldn't know how to fix it

Re: Members personal websites

Hi Guitar Man. I noticed your site has a few XHTML validation problems. I'm happy to help if you want.... I'm a bit of an XHTML zealot evangelist.

(Love the retro look!)

Re: Members personal websites

Serpently. Your problem is a mixture of XHTML and HTML markup. Personally, I find it easier to target XHTML 1.0

Then, you just need to work through this list: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%...ML+1.0+Strict&group=0

Most of them are easy, and totally explained, like adding the namespace attribute and changing WIDTH to width. I glanced through the rest of them, and here are a few tips for the more incomprehensible errors:

It's <br /> not </br>

You can replace <center></center> with <div style="text-align: center;"></div> or something similar.

But you have nice clean code, fixing it should be easy :-)

Re: Members personal websites

Thanks Didactylos
I think I can follow the rest of it, but What do I do about this -



The detected DOCTYPE Declaration
"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">"
has been suppressed and the DOCTYPE for "XHTML 1.0 Strict" inserted instead,
but even if no errors are shown below the document will not be Valid until you update it to reflect this new DOCTYPE.

Re: Members personal websites

Ideally, your page should start like this:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>

You have a Content-Type header in there already, but it uses a different charset. I recommend UTF-8.

As for the rest - it's just replacing XHTML 1.1 with XHTML 1.0. The reason for this is that you are likely to have some trouble with Content-Type if you continue with 1.1 - you have to use application/xhtml+xml instead, and that doesn't work well in older browsers.
