I also have no idea what you mean by "e-commerce layouts", though it's probably a safe guess to assume that you mean a document layed out using tables, spacer gifs, and other presentational elements and attributes, that comes from a complete lack of understanding about the purpose of (X)HTML, which is to apply semantics and structure to a document, not presentation. > It states that I do not have opening <head> > or <html> tags, or that "document type does not allow table here", when > clearly there is nothing wrong with where my table begins. Well, since the validator is complaining about them, then clearly there is a problem. The validator is rarely wrong about such things. However, since you have provide no information whatsoever about your document, there is no advice that anyone can give you about fixing your errors. A URL for the document would be the most useful. -- Lachlan Hunt http://lachy.id.au/ http://GetFirefox.com/ Rediscover the Web http://SpreadFirefox.com/ Igniting the Web
