This means you should use valid HTML " It is technobabble that the "validator" _always_ spit out - even if I just validated my HTML document, then followed the recommendation to "validate" the CSS as well! It _also_ issues the same message when someone asks it to check a CSS file that has absolutely nothing to do with HTML but will be used to format an XML file (which naturally does _not_ need to be valid for the purpose, though it should probably be well-formed). That is, the message is in no way related to your HTML or your CSS. It's like asking someone (or a program) to check the grammar of your English text and seeing the checker babble "To work as intended, your text should also have the facts right". Even if the text is a piece of fiction. > my code has no errors. Maybe. We cannot really tell. > What should I do ?? Regarding this message, nothing. Regarding Web authoring in general, it is advisable to use both a markup validator and the CSS checker called "validator" - as well as a spelling checker, if available, and other checking tools. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
