To the best of my knowledge, XHTML would never require a </img> tag, yet when I
validate my page, it returns this error:

Please, validate your XML document first!
Line 12
Column 5679
The element type "img" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</img>".

The URL is http://securecc.homeip.net/install/shop/index.php

I really think that the CSS Validator should use the W3C Markup Validation
Service parser to validate the page rather than having it's own. It should be
consistent with the Markup Validation Service in it's results, since the two go
hand-in-hand.

Best,

Ben Harper
