Um, I've noticed that on the main page, the valid XHTML button from the W3 is being displayed, but when you try to actually validate the page it fails on 26 counts. As much as failing really doesn't seem to be a concern of website most website admins as it does to me (I'm obsessive that my pages validate to XHTML 1.0 strict...), I thought I should bring it up so that either the code can be fixed, or the button removed. There have actually been cases where people have successfully sued websites that don't validate, I should note. Though I find that somewhat unlikely to happen in this case. =P Anyway, sorry for being pedantic. =P |

Most of the later errors seem to be a consequence from the initial errors. Anyway, xhtml 1.0 is old, dude. 1.1 has been out there for a time, too bad some of the browsers can't handle as one would like. |

Go find someone who cares. The home page is xhtml compliant and it used to validate correctly, the problem is that some bbcode compiles to anti Xhtml html so the news posts cause havoc. |

Yes, I know, but it's essentially the same as XHTML 1.0 strict, and rarely used. Interestingly, if you validate with no doctype on the w3 site, it gives you a link to adding a doctype, and the examples etc. are littered with XHTML 1.0 doc types. 1.1 is kinda pointless most of the time. When it comes to moving to 2.0, I'll probably shift, but I'm not likely to jump over unless I see benefit. Quote:
I did expect such a response, to be honest. I just wondered if it was known about, or if anything was gonna be done. Anyway, I'm done. |
