Guest jeffW Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I have these error's with the W3 Validator and I was hoping someone could help me understand them? I am using Coda and it's Validator doesn't report any errors and honestly I can't seem to figure out what is wrong any help would be very appreciated or insights on what a parsing error could be? thanks jeffError Line 42, Column > 80: XML Parsing Error: xmlParseEntityRef: no name…work as an architectural painter, interior painter, ..…# Error Line 61, Column 6: XML Parsing Error: Opening and ending tag mismatch: div line 54 and ul </ul>✉# Error Line 63, Column 6: XML Parsing Error: Opening and ending tag mismatch: body line 23 and div</div>✉# Error Line 81, Column 7: XML Parsing Error: Opening and ending tag mismatch: html line 3 and body</body> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibineku Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 It means that you're closing tags that you haven't opened, or you aren't closing tags you've opened. For example, if you have ....<div><p>hi!</p> </body> the div tag isn't closed, that sort of thing. A lot of browsers let you open some tags without explicitly closing them, but if you want your code to validate, at least with a strict xtml doctype, you need to close everything.
