And it had to do with validating my page and the CSS. The HTML validation is done at w3.org I have come across something that has amazed me. I am a complete amateur but can't understand how I have gone this long without knowing this. What is the story with the "/>" at the end of the meta tags? Up until now my meta tages have looked like this HTML Code: <meta name="description" content="description here"> Now that I have discovered it is a good idea to validate your pages I have found that all these things are errors! It makes me write it like this to get rid of the error. HTML Code: <meta name="description" content="description here" /> Infact, everything in the head has to end with the ../> or it's an error. I have no idea why. And this whole validation thing is new to me anyway. I'd appreciate it if someone explained to me what is going on here. thank you. I am not sure what I am doing wrong with this page but the validation fails. Any help? http://www.h51school.com/ Deleted By User. When I asked my web designer to validate the site design through http://validator.w3.org/, he agreed to it. But when I tested it, there were 2 Errors, 92 warning(s) . When I enquired about it, the designer says there is nothing to worry about warnings. And as there are just 2 errors, it would not be a big problem. Is it right? How this will affect SEO? Can this be search engine friendly website? I am new to HTML and am currently working on my second website. At the moment I have started to validate all of the various pages using HTML 1.0 Strict but I have run into a problem on one page that I cannot figure out. The page involved an image map with the onmouseover feature on the major links which changes the image map to give the illusion of changing the text color of the link. I was able to validate using Transitional, but if possible I would like to validate the entire site using HTML 1.0 Strict. Here is a link to the Strict page with the error: http://www.crystalhatchlings.com/MainPageV.htm There is a link to the W3C Markup Validation Site at the bottom of the page. The error deals with the the "name" attribute. If I remove or change the "name" attribute the onmouseover function does not work and when you hover your mouse over the red links they stay red. They do not change to blue. Please bear in mind that the link is to a test page and while it links to the rest of my site none of the site links back to this test page. The Transitional validated page can be found he http://www.crystalhatchlings.com/MainPage.htm If I am missing something in my post or if it is not detailed enough please forgive me. As I said I am very new to web design. Take care and have a great day.... ciao, john.

For HTML 4.01 Strict, the '/' terminates the tag <FOO (with an implied '>'). However, since many browsers don't interpret it this way, even in the presence of an HTML 4.01 Strict DOCTYPE, it is best to avoid it completely in pure HTML documents and reserve its use solely for those written in XHTML. 2) Line 2, Column 12: there is no attribute "XMLNS". <html xmlns= " http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).... 3) Line 2, Column 52: there is no attribute "XML:LANG". <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang= " en"> You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element.

I installed a module which allows me to bring it into the frontpage (just a picture with the link to the feed), but when i check the validity of html at http://validator.w3.org i get an error on this link, i dont understand what this should mean or why it returns this error but hopefully someone can explain me this and help . This is the link to the feed: http://www.3d-sphere.com/?format=feed&type=rss This is the line of code with the image\link on the front page (on this line is also the error): <a type="application/rss+xml" rel="alternate" href="http://www.3d-sphere.com/?format=feed&type=rss"> And here is the report from validity: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://3d-sphere.com any advice would be great, thx, Tomas My html is attached, I was wondering what I can do to fix what is wrong with my website! I can't see anything, but I do know that two of the buttons don't work, most likely because of the website not being validated. Any help is appreciated! BTW, just remove the .txt for it to become an html doc. to validate it just try this: http://validator.w3.org/ I don't know what the errors mean: HTML Code: No Character Encoding Found! Falling back to UTF-8. None of the standards sources gave any information on the character encoding labeling for this document. Without encoding information it is impossible to reliably validate the document. As a fallback solution, the "UTF-8" encoding was used to read the content and attempt to perform the validation, but this is likely to fail for all non-trivial documents. Read the FAQ entry on character encoding for more details and pointers on how to fix this problem with your document. Unable to Determine Parse Mode! The validator can process documents either as XML (for document types such as XHTML, SVG, etc.) or SGML (for HTML 4.01 and prior versions). For this document, the information available was not sufficient to determine the parsing mode unambiguously, because: the MIME Media Type (text/html) can be used for XML or SGML document types No known Document Type could be detected No XML declaration (e.g <?xml version="1.0"?>) could be found at the beginning of the document. No XML namespace (e.g <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">) could be found at the root of the document. As a default, the validator is falling back to SGML mode. No Character encoding declared at document level No character encoding information was found within the document, either in an HTML meta element or an XML declaration. It is often recommended to declare the character encoding in the document itself, especially if there is a chance that the document will be read from or saved to disk, CD, etc. See this tutorial on character encoding for techniques and explanations. Validation Output: 1 Error Line 1, Column 1: end of document in prolog ✉ This error may appear when the validator receives an empty document.

I would really like some help. You see when i leave the telephone field blank the code error message comes up telling me that i cant leave that field blank. When i then put in illegal characters it says that i used illegal characters but instead of clearing the feild,allowing me to type the correct phone number and then moving onto the getradio if statement it goes to receipt page when the submit button is clicked instead of doing the validate checks first and then moving onto the receipt.html page. This is the problem area. Code: if (form.phone.value == "") { alert("Please enter your telephone number for shipping Information."); form.phone.focus(); return (false); } else { validate(); } if (getRadio("pay") == null) { alert("Please choose a payment method."); return (false); } return (true); } //--></script> <script language="javascript"> function validate() { if (isNaN(parseInt(this.value))) { alert("The phone number contains illegal characters."); form.phone.focus(); return (false); } } //--></script> The below code is for the form. Code: <FORM name="information" action="..\..\Cars\GT\receipt.html" method="get" onSubmit=" return form_Validator(this)"> <!-- Tells the button what action to take --> The below code is the full validation check function Code: <!-- This is used to validate the radio buttons to make sure that one of those options are pressed --> <script language="javascript"> function getRadio(radioName){ var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input'); var ret = null; for(var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++){ if(inputs[i].type == 'radio' && (inputs[i].name == radioName || inputs[i].id == radioName) && inputs[i].checked){ ret = inputs[i].value; } } return ret; } <!-- This is used to validate the text boxes to make sure that an item is written into it --> <!-- I f the next box remains empty an error message appears --> function form_Validator(form) { if (form.first_name.value == "") { alert("Please enter your first name for shipping Information."); form.first_name.focus(); return (false); } if (form.last_name.value == "") { alert("Please enter your last name for shipping Information."); form.last_name.focus(); return (false); } if (form.address.value == "") { alert("Please enter your address for shipping Information."); form.address.focus(); return (false); } if (form.acode.value == "") { alert("Please enter the area code for shipping Information."); form.acode.focus(); return (false); } if (form.phone.value == "") { alert("Please enter your telephone number for shipping Information."); form.phone.focus(); return (false); } else { validate(); } if (getRadio("pay") == null) { alert("Please choose a payment method."); return (false); } return (true); } //--></script> <script language="javascript"> function validate() { if (isNaN(parseInt(this.value))) { alert("The phone number contains illegal characters."); form.phone.focus(); return (false); } } //--></script> </head> |
