I have two questions and possible bugs.
First, the following code was given to me by the CSS validator when my site http://bwbohh.net was sucessfully validated. This code is clearly not XHTML compliant.
<p>
<a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/">
<img style="border:0;width:88px;height:31px"
src="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/images/vcss"
alt="Valid CSS!">
</a>
</p>
The following would be compliant, placing a /> in the img tag.
<p>
<a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/">
<img style="border:0;width:88px;height:31px"
src="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/images/vcss"
alt="Valid CSS!" />
</a>
</p>
Secondly, is <meta /> not legal in HTML 4.1 transitional? It killed the validator, thinking that I had closed the </head> tag. In order to keep both HTML 4.1 transitional and XHTML transitional compliance, I was forced to do <meta></meta>. As far as I know, this is a bug in the validator.. but maybe you can enlighten me.
