HTML - Invalid Location Of Tag (br). Xhtml Validation Warning
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? Similar TutorialsHi there I use an iframe on a page and it doesn't validate, has anyone any idea why please ? Code: <iframe src="http://www.website.com" width="500" height="400"> </iframe> Thanks Gary Seem to be getting W3C errors on my Joomla based website. At a loss on how to make it compliant. The address is www.mph-uk.com and if you click the W3C checker on the right hand side, it should bring up three errors. Any advice is appreciated. Some of the items are coming from templates and modules.

I understand maybe CDATA islands can help with this? or making it external? but I have no idea how to do that with it having html code in there too.. I don't know if you can surround it in CDATA tags. There are other lines of code too, exactly the same except have different languages. Any help would be awesome! I am trying to make my contact page pass the W3C validation test. I have tried putting the form names (your name, your email and subject) in a p class with a defined font family and size because I think this is what W3C is telling me what to do but I still get lots of errors.. This is my form: HTML Code: <form method="post" action="contact.php">your name:<br /> <input type="text" name="name" size="19"><br />your email:<br /> <input type="text" name="email" size="19"><br />subject:<br /> <textarea rows="5" name="message" cols="30"></textarea> <br /> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"> </form> Please can someone shed some light onto this? Which one is better? XHTML STRICT 1.0 or XHTML 1.1 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 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. 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 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 There is an ivalid page on www.google.com and it directs me back to the home page. Why is that? 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". 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. Let me preface this by saying I'm very much a novice at this. I've done very basic HTML for a while, but have not advanced beyond that at all except to copy and paste some nice Java scripts that I've enjoyed from time to time. I do have 2 phpBB forum boards that I've enjoyed setting up. But that's pretty step by step instructional. Beyond that, I don't have a clue. But I love the little icons that many sites use in their location lines. Google has the G, Yahoo has the Y!, and Woot has the !. I'd like to put one on my websites, but I'm having a terrible time finding the code for it. If it's done in a CSS, I'm screwed. I have only peeked at this and never attempted it. But if someone has a way to put a small icon on my location line, I'd love to see it. I do most of my own graphics, and making the icon wouldn't be a problem at all. I just need to find out how to embed it. Thanks I want to redirect my users to C:\ but window.location won't do it, how do I do this? Hi, I wanted to know if someone can help me use th right html code to display the proper city for someones IP. I have found this site : http://www.hostip.info/use.html but I dont understand how to integrate it into my html. So I want something like this "hello my name is bob and im from" and thne right after the site displays their city. I know its not always accurate but it doesnt matter, if its off then no big deal but the times its on could be a good selling point. I did a search and found someone else asking something similar long time ago but it didnt really help me as it dealt with php. is Php required to do this? If so how can i do it to integrate it into my html, maybe by putting this section in an iframe of php.... Point is I wouldnt want to redo the whole website in php, considering I dont know php. Thanks! Greetings HTML people. I am sort of frankenstining a webpage together. This is what I have so far hogepodged together.

What I want to accomplish next is to border the Inline frame with Images I create in photoshop e.g. 2 side frames, one top banner, one bottom banner. How do I accomplish this in HTML? What are the technical challanges with this request? I have tried to search this out, but haven't found the necessary information. Thanks guys. D.M. Rosemark I have embeded a layer on my page but cannot set the exact location of the player, like move it 10% to the right or 20% to the botton the only attribute i can play with is align which either puts ir extreme left/right or so called centre, so how do i set the exact co-ordinate if you may so i can put it exaclt where i want to. |
