The TOPMARGIN attribute is not in any W3C HTML specification. To correct the error, you can remove the TOPMARGIN attribute (along with LEFTMARGIN, etc.) and instead use Cascading Style Sheets to specify the margin. Alternatively, you can keep TOPMARGIN and use a custom DTD as described at <http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/customdtd.html>. -- Liam Quinn
