Most of the errors that page reports are a result of third party, ad network code. This is exactly the sort of problem draconian error handling would have fixed. Were draconian error handling the order of the day, the network wouldn't be serving malformed code like that. I did go ahead and fix the malformedness problem. I'm not sure if I can fix the validity issue without breaking things. I'll check. There are also several false positives in that report. Apparently, the genuine errors cause the validator enough problems that it loses track of the start and end-tags and can't properly match them up though libxml can: $ xmllint --valid --noout http://cafe.elharo.com/web/mokka/ http://cafe.elharo.com/web/mokka/:263: element ul: validity error : Element ul content does not follow the DTD, expecting (li)+, got (li li style script li li li li li li ) </ul> ^ -- ?Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo at metalab.unc.edu Java I/O 2nd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeaulait.org/books/javaio2/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596527500/ref=nosim/cafeaulaitA/
