    Hello!
    
    My page was written in valid HTML 4.01 until I cutted and pasted the link
    you provided to the validator. At the following check I obtained this answer:
    
    Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML
    parser. 
    Line 189, column 84: 
      ...
    /check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.uniroma1.it%2FECIS%2F&doctype=Inline"><img ...
                                                       ^
    Error: unknown entity "doctype" (explanation...)
    
    So, as Juvenal would say, "who validates the validators?"...
    
    Thank you.
