First of all, to whoever reads this: thank you for providing such a wonderful and invaluable tool. I try my best to have all my sites validate and and I can't imagine how I'd manage to do it otherwise - IE is already a horror and without the W3C Validator... well, you can imagine. Anyway, I'm completing a site - the development version is up at http://jenkinsnew.icrmedia.com (likely by the time you read this, it will be up at http://jenkinsforwestchester.com ) and I have just two errors, as follows: Line 16, Column 42: Bad value cleartype for attribute http-equiv on element meta. <meta http-equiv="cleartype" content="on"> Line 17, Column 63: Bad value X-UA-Compatible for attribute http-equiv on element meta. <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge, chrome=1"> A quick search found the following thread, where the issue is discussed in detail - bottom line here is that these declarations do a lot to improve performance for mobile web and to provide better support for IE users. I am far from an expert here, but I think you should take this into consideration in your HTML 5 spec, which you do say is still in an experimental state. http://drupal.org/node/1334214 Thank you for all the work you do; I'm looking forward to seeing "green" again on my HTML sites - it always makes my day! Keep up the good work... we can't do it without you... Sincerely, -b Billy James Cobin Creative Director - InterCreative Media bcobin@icrmedia.com www.icrmedia.com tel: 212-787-7767 fax: 212.362.8427
