This is not the right place (this is a forum for discussing the future development of HTML, so you are supposed to know the present), and REFC is actually an SGML term, but you are basically right - REFC means "reference close", which is a character that terminates a character reference or an entity reference, and in HTML it is defined to be the semicolon ";". You have probably used a validator, which issues error messages using generic SGML terms, so they can be a bit hard to decipher. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
