Hello,
I am trying to validate a file (by uploading). Transitional 4.01
i have eliminated all error except this one any ideas?
1:
2: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
3: "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
4: <html>
5: <head>
6: <title>David Wright - Webmaster - Producer - Deveoper</title>
7: <style type="text/css">
8: <!--
9: .textTable
10: {
11: margin-left: 20px;
12: margin-top: 20px;
13: margin-right: 20px;
14: margin-bottom: 10px;
15: }
16: //-->
17: </style>
18: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/external.css" />
19: </head>
20:
21: <body>
22: <!--THIS IS THE HEADER TABLE (LOGO)-->
23: <table width="100%" border="0" style="background-color:
'#ffffff';border:'1px solid #000000'">
the error i receive is
</head>
^
Error: end tag for element "HEAD" which is not open; try removing the end
tag or check for improper nesting of elements
* Line 21, column 5:
<body>
^
Error: element "BODY" not allowed here; check which elements this element
may be contained within
When i eliminate these elements (</head><body>) my document validates and
oddly enough continues to be visible through a browser. Why is this? Thank
you for a great service.
Sincerely,
David Wright
