Ah, ok, thank you for explaining. Could the requirement of single or
double quotation marks around the value be explictly stated on the
error message?
Perhaps something like this:
======================
Line 30, column 116: an attribute value specification must be an
have apostrphe or quotes around the value (attribute value literal)
unless SHORTTAG YES is specified
...n_home.gif" style="border: 0" hspace=2 alt="Home">Home</a></td>
======================
I was wondering why you said preferably none of those though? Is there
a better way of getting a similar effect? The site I am working on is
http://www.skyscrapernews.com/ you can see the "Home" link bar near the
top of the page horizontally.
Please include my email address in any replies.
Kind regards
