HTML - Validate Problem
Hello
Please help with explaining this problem: and possibly how to solve it thanks. No Character Encoding Found! Falling back to UTF-8. I was not able to extract a character encoding labeling from any of the valid sources for such information. Without encoding information it is impossible to reliably validate the document. I'm falling back to the "UTF-8" encoding and will 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. Sorry! This document can not be checked. Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because on line 306 it contained one or more bytes that I cannot interpret as utf-8 (in other words, the bytes found are not valid values in the specified Character Encoding). Please check both the content of the file and the character encoding indication. Similar TutorialsHey guys basically am trying to validate my page but am facing some problems, specifically warnings saying : *********<br/> The sequence <FOO /> can be interpreted in at least two different ways, depending on the DOCTYPE of the document. 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. What's wrong with that? I am trying to validate my site but I'm stuck on one error. The error is on my index page and every other page. The error read "Line 17 column 7:end tag for element "STYLE" which is not open'. If someone cane guide me to a solution or guide me to a good site that really explain my error(s). It would be a relief. I used W3C HTML validator MyCountryGear.com <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <head> <title>Home Page</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" > <meta name="description" content="Eritrean t-shirst hats and much much more.." > <meta name="keywords" content="Hats, T-shirts, Tank tops, eritrea, eritrean, eritrea news, asmara, asmera, eritrea history, eritrean history, eritrea news, eritrean hats, eritrean t-shirts, eritrean tank tops, eritrean community, eritrean girls, eritrean women, asmarino, asmarino.com, mycountrygear.com, my country gear, habesha, eritrea in DC, ertitreans in DC, eritrean soccer tournament, eritrean festival " > <meta name="author" content=" MyCountryGear.com" > <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/styles2column.css" media="screen"> </style> </head> <body> <div id="mainwrap"> <div id="header"> <h1 >MyCountryGear.com</h1> </div> <div id="contentarea" class="clearfix"> <div id="contentarea2" class="clearfix"> <div id="left"> <ul id="navigation"> <li> <a href="http://www.mycountrygear.com">Home Page</a> </li> <li><a href="html/hats.html">Hats</a></li> <li><a href="html/T_shirts.html">Shirts</a></li> <li><a href="html/Tank_Tops.html">Tank Tops</a></li> <li><a href="html/Arts.html"> Game Room </a></li> <li><a href="html/Contact.html"> Contact Us</a></li> </ul> </div> <!-- <div id="right"> </div> --> <div id="centerdiv" style="background-color:#ffffff;"> <h4 align=center>Welcome To MyCountryGear.com</h4> <hr align="center" width="50%"> <br> <br> <p> If you have been searching for Eritrean hats, T-shirts, and art work you have come to the right place!

I've been doing HTML since 1996 or so. I'm no expert and have not kept up with everything to say the least. I just designed a new website. Basically only has a index.html file. I've realized I need to make this site by the book so everything is kosher. Tried validating it and the warnings, errors I got looked totally alien to me. I have a headache from trying to figure it out. Hell the file is only 83 lines long and it's beating me up! Can someone help me? PS. I'm using CoffeeCup's HTML Editor. Thanks, Dave www.PhotographersNature.com Dreamweaver created the following and it doesn't pass validation Code: <embed src="ozpower.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="687" height="335"></embed> Any suggestions?

If you want me to post my CSS or attach a copy of my website, just say so Thanks again, Chris hey, My page does not validate because of a flash object. The weird thing is that the code is automatically generated by dreamweaver. Feel free to copy and paste the code into a validator to see what the errors are.

How can i modify this so it will? Site in question is: http://investorsconnection.net Here is the W3 validation for it: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...line&gro up=0 If you look at the first error, it has to do with a javascript function that is in the code. I suspect that the subsequent errors displayed in the validator are displayed due to something setting off the first error. 1. I thought the validator only validated HTML, not Javascript. 2. I've used the exact same Javascript function on other sites and they validated just fine - and I literally copy and pasted the function, so I'm a bit confused what is setting off the validator this time... Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks! The contactus page currently sends data to 3 email addresses. I dont verify these fields currently but wish to do so. I merely have them sent to feedback.php which accepts the data and sends the emails. I want two things done where I need help: 1, I need all fields to be validated in the contactus page itself before going to the feedback.php file 2, I want a simple captcha that can also be verified on contactus.php itself. Can someone help? Thanks Navs We currently have a feedback form (feedback.php) that is used in our contactus page. This gets sent to three email address. I now want to add a captcha to it and create a verification for all the fields in the contactus page itself My Blog's URL: http://moviesamour.blogspot.com/ I just created this blog. I'm not sure if the feed isn't working due to the fact that I used a downloaded skin and the coding is off, or what, but it isn't validating when I try to link it to Facebook notes (or when I put it into feed validator, for that matter). I really don't know much about coding, so all help is appreciated!

Okay, I know that this problem is going to be really really easy, but I forgot how to do it. I use to own an older website and forgot the code. Anyways, I only know how to describe it. When I minimize the screen, it is minimizing the whole thing and collapsing it making the iframes smaller and the text fit into a smaller space. Most websites have a code (i don't know what it is) so that when someone minimizes their browser, it just makes the browser smaller and not the actual page. Here's what it looks like: http://www.freewebs.com/noeylani94/index.htm Try minimizing that and see how it looks. It collapses the whole page right? Can someone tell me the code how to fix it? Thanks =D Dear members, I am not very good in HTML programming so please accept my apologizes if my question is very simple. I have a website called loonu.com. In IE7,IE8,Chrome,Firefox,Safari etc.. its mainpage (www.loonu.com) is shown exactly how i want to, whereas in IE6 it looks terrible. My question is, according to your experience is my mistake so obvious because i can not see it. Thanks for your help. I know nothing about html really but i am working on developing a site and i can't get rid of this problem. I am not even sure if this is the correct forum to put this in! I have made a nav bar that goes horizontally. When someone hovers over the top, the entire contect of the site moves up about 5 pixels. This problem can be viewed here : http://www.djcarchitect.com/company/team/indexpage.html does ANYBODY know how I can fix this problem? Thank you so much. |
