eduard Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I want to finish my website soon!Some adviced me yesterday to validate each html first and then arrange the CSS so thatñs equal to all browsers.But the first problem is that if I validate my html form the validator gives me errors which don´t exist?E. g.: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"><HTML><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/ html; charset=UTF-8"><title>Hospedaje y cabañs Nicolás</title><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ex2.css"><a href="hospedaje/hospedaje.html">Hospedaje</a><br/><a href="cabanas/cabanas.html">Cabañas</a></head><body><div><h1 style="font-family:arial,verdana,helvetica; color:blue; text-align:center">Hospedaje y cabañas Nicolás</h1 style></div><br/><br/><br/><div><img width="500" height="400" align="right" src="Hospedaje 15 9.jpg" alt="image hospedaje"/><img width="500" height="400" align="left" src="camara 2011 049.jpg" alt="image lago Villarrica"/></div><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>IL<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><h2 style="font-family:arial,verdana,helvetica; color:blue; text-align:center"> Villarrica</h2 style><h2 style="font-family:arial,verdana,helvetica; color:blue; text-align:center"> La Auracanía</h2 style><h2 style="font-family:arial,verdana,helvetica; color:blue; text-align:center"> CHILE</h2 style></div></body></HTML> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsonesuk Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I can spot three lines of error code in the first ten lines of this code, Which I might add have been mentioned several times before, and because you can't be bothered to correct, I can't be bothered to point it out AGAIN!

Ingolme Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 The validator never makes any mistakes. Those errors really exist: You can't have<a> or <br> tags inside the <head> element. You can't have a style attribute in a closing tag (</h1 style> is invalid, it should be just </h1>) Inline elements (like <br />) can't be directly under the body, they have to be put inside a block element, like a <div>.This is wrong: <body><br/><br/> This is valid: <body> <div> <br> <br> </div> It's not a good practise to use <br> elements at all, though it is valid HTML.The <img> element doesn't have an align attribute (This is wrong: <img align="right">). Use CSS float instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescientist Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 what are the errors the validator is telling you? Because they most certainly do exist. Did you even bother trying to figure out what they were and trying to follow the validator's advice for resolving them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead). This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information. How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute.

Ingolme Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 We just told you that the error do exist. And it's true that these errors were mentioned to you in previous topics.

eduard Posted September 25, 2011 Author Share Posted September 25, 2011 The validator never makes any mistakes. Those errors really exist: You can't have<a> or <br> tags inside the <head> element. You can't have a style attribute in a closing tag (</h1 style> is invalid, it should be just </h1>) Inline elements (like <br />) can't be directly under the body, they have to be put inside a block element, like a <div>. This is wrong:<body><br/><br/> This is valid: <body> <div> <br> <br> </div> It's not a good practise to use <br> elements at all, though it is valid HTML. The <img> element doesn't have an align attribute (This is wrong: <img align="right">). Use CSS float instead. See reply to the scientist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eduard Posted September 25, 2011 Author Share Posted September 25, 2011 what are the errors the validator is telling you? Because they most certainly do exist. Did you even bother trying to figure out what they were and trying to follow the validator's advice for resolving them? For example the validator says when I validate a html file: ´"¨ in line ... missing, but it ´"´is there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 When the validator encounters an error, it continues to analyze the HTML after trying to recover from the error. The recovery may lead it into a direction from which everything would be in error.You should fix errors in the order they show up in the validator, and revalidate after fixing few errors.Does the reply to thescientist contain the errors after you fixed the errors pointed by Ingolme? Did you actually fixed those?Any chance you could upload your actual HTML page somewhere, so that we may keep track of the messages as you fix each error?

Line 18, Column 1: unclosed start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES<a href="http://www.viadeo.com/profile/00228dv4nx9p4u37/?ga_from=Fu:undefined;F…✉The construct <foo<bar> is valid in HTML (it is an example of the rather obscure “Shorttags” feature) but its use is not recommended. In most cases, this is a typo that you will want to fix. If you really want to use shorttags, be aware that they are not well implemented by browsers. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"><HTML><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/ html; charset=UTF-8"><title>Eduard Lid</title><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ex1.css"></head><body><div class="header"</div><div class="profile"<a href="http://www.viadeo.com/profile/00228dv4nx9p4u37/?ga_from=Fu:undefined;Fb:header-top_right;Fe:L1-premium;"><b><h4>Profile<br/>Perfil</h4></b></a></div><div class="english"<a href="versions/english/web_designer/eduard.html"><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cIPQ-HCqBAg/TAKoVdt59AI/AAAAAAAAAK4/fvqQE-B5g0w/s1600/english+flag.gif" alt="english" class="english"></a></div><div class="spanish"<a href="versions/espanol/nicolas/index.html"><img src="http://www.enchantedlearning.com/europe/spain/flag/Flagbig.GIF" alt="spanish" class="spanish"></a></div><div class="bottom"></div><div id="content"<img width="320" height="256" align="left" style="border-right:2px solid grey" src="http://www.aquaculture.ugent.be/_img/database.jpg" id="dbimg" alt="img database"><img width="320" height="256" align="right" style="border-left:2px; solid grey;" src="me.JPG" id="foto" alt="img Eduard Lid"><p class="webdesign">webdesign<span>diseño sitios web</span></p><p class="database">database<span> base de datos</span></p><p class="translator">translator<span> traductor</span></p><p class="languages"> spanish german dutch<span>inglés alemán holandés</span></p><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><h2 style="text-align:center;font-family:verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color:#696969;">Eduard Lid</h2></div><div id="image"><p class="image"> database<span>base de datos</span></p></div><div id="footer"></div></body></HTML> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 It means that you left your DIV tag open before the <a> element. It's missing a closing angle bracket: <div class="profile"> <a href="http Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyDan Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 If you use an html editor like notepad++ it will let you know that you left a tag open and many other minor fixes in the color of the text. You should try it, that way you wont have to post every tiny issue you run into on the forum. You can fix them as they happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
