    parse error

    Help wanted please, I am making a website template for my first site.Im using html.4 transitional which I've had validated by the w3c validator. However when I try to validate the css. I keep getting "parse error, unrecognised"this then shows the dtd. and usually my #header and its contents. Can anyone explain why because I'm at a loss. Thankyou, Colin.
