W3C HTML Validation Service ResultsGidday
Thanks for the site and the useful service. This is the first time I have attempted to have a page validated.
I was having trouble figuring out how to put in the encoding so I veiwed the source of the Validation page thinking "I can copy from here". There wasn't any example so I sent your page and found No Character Encoding detected. I have to ask how come? Are you not supposed to be setting an example to us?
Please, please, fix it.
regards
max

76: A fatal error occurred when attempting to transcode the character encoding
77: of the document. Either we do not support this character encoding yet, or you
78: have specified a non-existent character encoding (often a misspelling).

80: <p>The detected character encoding was "us-asci".</p>
81: <p>The error was "".</p>
82: <p>
83: If you believe the character encoding to be valid you can submit a request for
84: that character encoding (see the <a href="/feedback.html">feedback page</a>
85: for details) and we will look into supporting it in the future.
