(b) XHTML authors should know to revalidate their XHTML after making modifications (c) <img /> has a different meaning in HTML, so presenting that format of tag, while being valid, would be wrong for HTML documents (d) This is a CSS validator issue and should be directed at www-validator-css not www-validator -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk/
