You could always join the frey and help forward the message of well-formedness by contacting the Support, Help, or other similar resources on the websites associated with the offending software you encounter.. Respectfully advocate to them that they please help bring up the quality experience of the ENTIRE World Wide Web by addressing the errors in their own [code].. If you happen to know exactly what is causing the error along with the fix, by all means do include that in your correspondence as it might be the very trigger to seeing the instance addressed.. THAT SAID........................... Am going thru a tremendous backlog in emails and JUST TODAY came across one that was speaking about Google's use of HTML 5 [1] and not closing tags.. Email was old enough that this may not be the case now BUT the rationale made sense, albeit doesn't help us standards advocates on some level or another.. The article writer observed that non-closed tags result in less drag on Google's server end for whatever technical reason related to browser support.. When you multiply the couple seconds saved per page by however many page accesses a second hit Google servers, welp, there's the motivation for them to not necessarily validate without error.. Your inquiry brings it back to Mind to think that, for all we know, this may well be the case as to why we've been advocating to entities such as Adsense for YEARS and to date have pretty much gotten nowhere with particular ones.. :grin: Not what you were looking for, I know, but was just something related fresh in Mind that *might* somehow shed light on why we're all these years later still up against the same.. Best wishes in your validation efforts..
