I don't know what the error message means PLEASE help.

Hello,

 

I have been trying to validate my "CSS" and "HTML" pages, No luck.

I get the following error message- I don't know what the line numbers are in
the validator.  I have cut & pasted the bottom elements to the top of the
"CSS" page The validator still gave the same error pointing to the bottom of
the "CSS".

This is the message:

Error

Target: C:\wwwroot\Styles\Maroon-NavajoWhite.css

java.lang.RuntimeException: Lexical error at line 76, column 10.
Encountered: after : "" 

 

 

This is my "C SS" code:

/*   

            aqua #00FFFF, black #000000, blue #0000FF,  fuchsia #FF00FF,
gray #808080, 

            green #008000, lime #00FF00, maroon #800000, navy   #000080,
olive #808000,

            purple #800080, red #FF0000, silver #C0C0C0, teal   #008080,
white #FFFFFF, 

            and                    yellow #FFFF00  only valid color-names 

 

      Standard link colors are underlined and are colored as follows 

      (Warning: Inactive links): New link (color: Blue) 

                         Visited  link (color: Purple) 

                         Active   link (color: Red) 

      Standard links have two elements that should be present: 

            Underline. Blue links are not enough. 

                  They must also be underlined to inform users to "click
here". 

                  Otherwise the links may be misunderstood -- 

                  users will spend time figuring out where to click. 

            Blue Color. 

                  Most users know that underlined means a link as opposed to
blue.

                  However, it takes time to find out and some novice users
may 

                  never discover where to click. 

                  In any case, I see no logical reason to abandon or 

                  annoy customers just because they don't know where to
click.
