Hello, Olivier. On the Markup Validation Service and CSS Validation Service pages there are notes with the identifier in bold text. Since the statement we are discussing is "indeed a reminder," why not simply state it? <b>Reminder:</b> "To work as intended . . ." See the W3C Markup Validation Service for more information on validating your markup.

The CSS validator is a free, open source tool that is relying a lot on its user community for development. Feedback is very much welcome, and especially for cases where the wording could be improved, it is considered polite and constructive to not only point at the wrong wording, but also suggest a better replacement. Can you think of any wording for that note that would make it clear it is "just" a note? Thank you for your feedback. olivier. -- olivier Thereaux - W3C - http://www.w3.org/People/olivier/ W3C Open Source Software: http://www.w3.org/Status
