Re: [VE][70] Add Subject Here

Validator could probably have offered more pedagogical explanations, 
such as pointing to the cause of the problem rather than pointing to 
the result. 

But the cause is the <div id="content"> tag - you have not closed it. 
Therefore Validator considers that everything after that start tag as 
inside the element initiated by that start tag. Thus, even though the 
semantics of </body> and </html> is that they close the file, you - by 
not offering the end tag for <div id="content"> - hinders them from 
playing their role.
