You have a type=text/css in your <link>. Attribute values containing
"/" characters must be quoted.

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2

Since it is not quoted, it does not form part of the attribute value,
and / can be used (in this case at least) to end a tag instead of >
(even though most browsers don't respect it). 

You then have character data in the <head>, where it isn't
allowed. The end tag for <head> is optional though, as is the opening
tag for <body>.

So your code works out as:

<title>:::: Callidai Motor - Home ::::</title>
<LINK href="images/links.css" type=text>
</head>
<body>
css rel=stylesheet>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

and <meta> is not allowed inside the <body>.

This is the cause of your other error as well. See also
