You won't find such things explained in most HTML tutorials and textbooks. I hope some explanations will be added to the validator's pages. Here's a longish explanation about VI: In SGML, the term "VI", which is short for "value indicator", denotes the string that is used in an attribute specification between the attribute's name and its value. In the reference concrete syntax, which is used e.g. in HTML, the string used as VI is "=", i.e. equals sign. Thus, if you are validating an HTML document, read VI as "=". -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
