I think you mean "HTML document", not "script".

This is a bug in the HTML5 "validator" or in the HTML5 "specification", 
depending on who you ask. In practice, ignore it. (I use the quotes 
because the "validator" clearly says it is experimental and the 
"specification" is work in progress that may and will change without 
notice.)

You can replace the "&" by "&amp;" to get rid of this error message.

You have a dl element that contains nothing but a dt element. This is 
invalid syntax, and rather pointless - you probably should not use dl 
(description list) if you have just a "term" without any description.

You should include a URL, not screenshots. From the first screenshot, it 
seems that the URL is http://guzzero.blogspot.fi and it has the issues 
mentioned, though at different linenumbers.
