(repetition of the preposition "by" is in the original). The document uses a mixture of HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0. Usually it is pointless to use XHTML, but since the document appears to be mostly XHTML already, it is probably simplest to unify it to use XHTML throughout. On the other hand, the document seems to contain loads of rubbish generated by Microsoft Office software, so I'm not sure whether validation is a useful end here, without a major simplification of the page, which might not be productive if it works satisfactory. (Generally, don't waste time in cleaning up old pages. Create new pages well, instead.) -- Yucca, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
