HTML - Invalid Character Help
Hey Guys, im new to this forum and i am in desperate need of help!!
I have a site and when everypage loads it has a internet explorer error load. When double clicking the error it comes up with two different invalid errors and i cant work out how to solve the problem...(pretty new to the webworld) first one: Line: 2 Char: 1 Error Invalid Character Code: 0 URL: http://content.thisis.co.uk/gloucest...home/home.html Second one: Line: 199 Char: 1 Error Invalid Character Code: 0 URL: http://content.thisis.co.uk/gloucest...home/home.html What does all this mean?! The code for the test is to long to add........ Im just so stuck!!!!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Many thanks in advance! Matt Similar TutorialsHi all, I ran a link check for my site using software. and i got the errors as INVALID CHARACTER details are as below. Page - Category - 108 - Invalid character Date - 11/16/08 Severity - 5 Message - The character " ( 0x22 ) is not a valid ASCII character can anyone pls let me know what is this error and how could it be resolve ?? thanks a lot So this has been driving me crazy....I can't seem to figure out what is wrong with this HTML code. The W3 validator seems to think that I don't have a <head> element but it's there, so I don't get it. See here for the W3 report or view the original page here (note: this page has a meta and JavaScript redirect after 20 seconds). I should also note that this is not a dynamically generated page, it is "raw" HTML, if you want to call it that. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! -- Dan P.S. Not anything high on the priority list, as the page does seem to work as intended in all tested browsers (IE7/8, FF3, Opera 9, and Safari 3), it's just more of a curiosity and trying to do better next time thing. Hi, I've searched for sometime on this issue but no luck. I've two forms on my html page (say form1 and form2). Both the forms have one text area each (say textarea1 and textarea2). form1 also has a button on clicking which the contents of textarea2 are copied into textarea1. Everything seems so smooth till here. But the real hurdle starts here. Actually, I have an xml in textarea2. This xml has few elements with special characters like "&" and "<" Now when the button on the form1 is clicked the contents are copied into textarea1 and this is passed as a parameter to the servlet which tries to display it in a browser. But the textarea1 is converting all & and < to & and < and thus making it an invalid xml. I would like the special characters to stay the same as they are in textarea2. Any workaround for this? Option2: I even would like to know if there's a way to submit form2 when a button in form1 is clicked. Is it possible? Any help is really appreciated. Thanks. There is an ivalid page on www.google.com and it directs me back to the home page. Why is that? Hi, I have a website who can enter html code for product descriptions with my text editor. My problem is when user entered invalid html code, (not closed tables or divs etc) my layout distorted. I will try to change text editor but the other problem is i have lots of records, so i can't repeair invalid htmls on my database. So how can i isolate user html code from to my html? I don't want to use iframe. Any ideas? Thank you. This might sound pretty lame and stupid for you guys, but I'm a total beginner here and have a deadline that's coming in fast. There's no time for tutorials and so on so here goes: I've implemented a simple search field in my companies website with this: Code: <form name="form" action="http://www.idlena.lt/?section=naujienos&sub=naujienos4&lang=lt" method="get"> <input type="text" name="section=naujienos&sub=naujienos4&lang=lt&q" </> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Rasti" /> </form> Quite short and simple. Right? Wrong... the second link in the code should redirect the inputted text (in the search field) to the actual php script that handles the search with my database. The problem is - that link should redirect to Code: http://www.idlena.lt/?section=naujienos&sub=naujienos4&lang=lt&q=&Submit=Rasti Instead it redirects me in browser to Code: http://www.idlena.lt/?section%3Dnaujienos%26sub%3Dnaujienos4%26lang%3Dlt%26q=&Submit=Rasti and it breakes the url this way. I've read that sometimes ampersand has to be written with & in the code, I've done that. Doesn't make a difference. And what is even more strange - why doesn't the equal (=) sign show up as it should? This is just too frustrating. As a total beginner I understand that the explanation or the fix could be very simple but I just can't figure this out. Maybe there's an error in my code? Maybe I'm typing the url wrong? The main question remains - why don't ampersands and "=" signs show up as they should? Tried using the & , &amp; , %26 in the code but nothing helped. Firefox 3.0.5 and IE 8 show up a broken link with "&" shown as "%26" and "=" with "%3D". I'm using Eclipse as my IDE, and getting a warning from it's XHTML validator saying: Invalid location of tag (br). The code is as follows: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <title>Animation Master</title> </head> <body style="font-family: sans-serif"> <h1>Testing</h1> <br /> <br /> <br /> <p>Blah blah</p> </body> </html> It happens at each <br /> tag, so I'm getting the warning three times. Why is this? I have been creating a job description page and i copied it from a word document and editted it but for some reason im getting the euro and trademark in their when there is no character encoding for it, i have linked the web page below also the scrollbar doesnt scrolldown www.cleverblobs.co.uk/jobdesc.html Such is called 'x bar' in mathematics. http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...ss =1&group=0 Under "Potential Issues", I have no idea what that means, how can I fix it? (Source is shown at link) Hello everyone this is my first time htmlforums.com and i have a quick and hopefully simple question for you guys to answer. I have this code for a flash audio player and in the html code of the whole thing theres a part that looks like this:
PHP Code: ...&ShowPlaylist=1&ShowEQ=1&firstTrack=5&initVol=100" wmode="transparent" /></embed><BR><CENTER><A Where it says firstTrack=# instead of 5 or any other number is there some sort of character that i can type in to make it choose randomly out of total of nine tracks? Thanks for the help. When I set a div overflow on a sentence that is in a set width...if a word is too big it cuts off the whole word. Is there a way to break by character instead of word? Hi guys, just wanna ask if there is a single letter entity valid for html codes, e.g &E; &C; etc.. thanks, My Hi, Can I display unicode character(i.e down arrow) BLACK DOWN-POINTING TRIANGLE ▼ 9660 using javascript on my page. Can you plz guide me. Thanks With Regards Hi, This is a strange problem. I have a small personal website written in UTF-8, which I have indicated with the Content-Type tag in the head, as you may verify. Nontheless, Firefox (at least, haven't tried any other browser) misinterprets and renders the page in ISO-8859-1, leading to the misrendered characters under item 5 under "Documents". As Firefox's "page info" dialog tells me, the Content-Type tag is recognized but the encoding is still ISO-8859-1. Viewing the page locally works fine, same with every other server I have tried. Why? Can this sort of setting be overridden by the server? I'm sure this is simple but it's got me baffled! I am basically trying to put a link to a jpg in a text description box using the following code: <mg src="http://i310.photobucket.com/albums/kk437/timpotter_photos/Apex/The_Apex_Researcher_Fixed_2009.jpg"> however, for some reason when I go back to edit the text it is displayed as: <img src="http://i310.photobucket.com/albums/kk437/timpotter_photos/Apex/The_Apex_Researcher_Fixed_2009.jpg"> Is there a way of stopping the < and > characters from changing to < and > because at the moment the code is just appearing on the screen in the description rather than the picture I'm linking to! any help would be greatly appreciated!! Hi everybody, I'm building a website for a project at school and I'm encountering some problems. It's my first website, so excuse me if I ask some stupid questions.
