That's interesting. I have just done various tests and it appears that the problem is only triggered off when, on validator.w3.org, the doctype is "(detect automatically)". If I force it to "HTML5", there is no problem! The page is always reported to be valid. But with "(detect automatically)", it is sometimes valid sometimes invalid. Does it give you a better idea of where the problem might be? -- Julien ÉLIE « Le rire est une chose sérieuse avec laquelle il ne faut pas plaisanter. » (Raymond Devos)
