hello,
when i validated the project antville site [1] with the HTML validator,
it
found more errors than there really are [2]. it seemingly failed to
recognize
a few opening tags. e.g. consider the first ten lines of the document:
---8<---
1: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
2: <html>
3: <head>
4: <title>Project Antville</title>
5: <meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="TRUE">
6: <link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="XML"
href="http://project.antville.org/rss10" />
7: <script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.antville.org/safescripts"></script>
8: <script type="text/javascript"
src="http://project.antville.org/javascript"></script>
9: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="CSS Stylesheet"
href="http://project.antville.org/stylesheet" />
10: </head>
--->8---
looking at this, i cannot explain this error message:
> Line 10, column 6: Error: end tag for element "HEAD" which is not open;
> try removing the end tag or check for improper nesting of elements
if you know the answer, i would be pleased to read from you; please
send a
copy to nex@o-slash.org, i'm not on the list.
cheers,
nex
