Page not valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional?
Okay,
So I've been having problems (go fig) with my page displaying properly in the Firefox browser on my account. My site displays fine on my account in Safari. If I switch accounts, the site will display better (not perfectly) in Firefox. On my windows machine, my site displays fine in all three of my browsers, IE, Firefox, and Safari.
Here is a link to my site: kevin morehouse
The page that displays incorrectly is the "About Us" page.
I went to the Mozilla website and found a link to http://validator.w3.org/
This is what came back when I ran my URL
Validation Output: 4 Errors
Line 224, Column 202: there is no attribute "allowTransparency".
…0" marginwidth="0" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. 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. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash.
Line 255, Column 260: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "counter".
…7-B031088E2D79?webdav-method=propget&counter"></script><
✉
An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs".
Entity references start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). If you want to use a literal ampersand in your document you must encode it as "&" (even inside URLs!). Be careful to end entity references with a semicolon or your entity reference may get interpreted in connection with the following text. Also keep in mind that named entity references are case-sensitive; &Aelig; and æ are different characters.
If this error appears in some markup generated by PHP's session handling code, this article has explanations and solutions to your problem.
Note that in most documents, errors related to entity references will trigger up to 5 separate messages from the Validator. Usually these will all disappear when the original problem is fixed.
Line 255, Column 260: general entity "counter" not defined and no default entity.
…7-B031088E2D79?webdav-method=propget&counter"></script><
✉
This is usually a cascading error caused by a an undefined entity reference or use of an unencoded ampersand (&) in an URL or body text. See the previous message for further details.
Line 255, Column 267: reference not terminated by REFC delimiter.
…88E2D79?webdav-method=propget&counter"></script><img src
✉
If you meant to include an entity that starts with "&", then you should terminate it with ";". Another reason for this error message is that you inadvertently created an entity by failing to escape an "&" character just before this text.
Line 255, Column 267: reference to external entity in attribute value.
…88E2D79?webdav-method=propget&counter"></script><img src
✉
This is generally the sign of an ampersand that was not properly escaped for inclusion in an attribute, in a href for example. You will need to escape all instances of '&' into '&'.

I am VERY concerned with the fact that my pages are not being properly validated and displayed.
I have created two different sites using iWeb '08 and while I am satisfied with the ease of use, I am concerned that my sites are not being displayed correctly... in fact, the other day my friend who is a Mac whiz and who hosts my business website on his server... tried to visit the site that I created using iWeb '08 and had published to my .Mac account... it caused his browser to flat out crash! He said he hasn't seen anything like that in years!
Here is the site I have begun to build http://www.mcleanmonowheel.com
If you paste this url into http://validator.w3.org/ a slew of errors pop up.
Is this the norm with iWeb or have I done something wrong on my end???

I recently done an upgrade on my PC (can't remember what). since then I haven't been able to open or log in to my Yahoo bookmarks (red button on tool bar). I get a log in screen, but when I log in with my Yahoo ID and password, I get "This page expired" error message. I've gone the the help menu and reset my yahoo password, but it still won't let me log into yahoo bookmarks with Firefox. If i use Explorer, it works fine. I like Firefox, but I need to be able to access yahoo bookmarks.
Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], choose History, and then Clear Recent History....
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -
DW Validator XHTML Transitional DTD
If i am using the validator XHTML 1.0 Transitional as my
validation. Is the DTD file it is using located somewhere in DW's
configuration folders? If so, does anyone know where it is?
i see that under tagLibraries\Validator\ there is the
XHTML10t.vtv file, but that is not the actual DTD.> is there any reason not to use XHTML 1.0 Strict?
No. If your skill can support the use of this doctype, it's
fine to use.
> Would this interfere with validation?
No.
> Is there any way to change the
> DOCTYPE for pages I have already started?
In CS3, use FILE | Convert ...

label tag: DW8 sometimes generates illegal XHTML 1.0/Transitional code
Dreamweaver 8 sometimes generates XHTML 1.0/Transitional code
that violates the DTD when using the <label> tag for adjacent
radio buttons on a form.
Consider the following example:
1) Make a new HTML page using the XHTML 1.0/Transitional
document type.
2) Working in Design mode, insert a a new form element.
3) With accessibility options turned on, insert a radio
button. When the Input Tag Accessibility Attributes dialog appears,
give the new button a label of "This is my label" and select the
"Wrap..." style.
4) Use the Property Inspector to assign a name and value of
"choice1" to the new radio button.
5) Using the arrow keys, position the cursor at the end of
the new button's label text.
6) Insert a second radio button there, and give it a label of
"This is my second label."
7) Use the Property Inspector to assign a name and value of
"choice2" to the second radio button.
Examine the resulting code. The code will be either valid or
invalid, depending on exactly where the cursor was positioned in
step 4. If you watch the Code window while you position the cursor
in step 4, you will see that the cursor positions itself EITHER
INSIDE OR OUTSIDE THE FIRST BUTTON'S </label> TAG, DEPENDING
ON which direction you were going when you positioned the cursor at
the end of the prior button's label. If you were moving the cursor
from left to right, the cursor will be placed WITHIN the first
button's closing </label> tag; if you overshot the end of the
prior label and then backed up, the cursor will be placed BEYOND
the closing </label> tag. In the former case, each button
will get a separate <label> tag pair. In the latter case,
BOTH BUTTONS WILL BE CONTAINED WITHIN A SINGLE <label> TAG
PAIR, as in the following (illegal) example:
<!--THIS CODE IS INVALID ACCORDING TO XHTML
1.0/TRANSITIONAL-->
<label>
<input name="choice1" type="radio" value="choice1" />
This is my label
<input name="choice2" type="radio" value="choice2" />
This is my second label
</label>
This is INVALID XHTML 1.0/TRANSITIONAL. Specifically, the DTD
specifies that "Each label must not contain more than ONE field" (
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/dtds.html).
Here, Dreamweaver generates one label containing two fields. While
IE6 and Opera 8.0 ignore the error and display it anyway, Firefox
1.5 follows the DTD in this case and therefore cannot handle more
than one radio button within a single label tag; the resulting form
selects the first value no matter what the user clicks on.Max
This is happening because in standards mode browsers are ignoring the height="70%" attribute on the table that is the first element of div.t13BodyMargin because (among other things) it's invalid XHTML. This is the kind of thing that happens when the built-in APEX themes – designed for quirks mode – are thrown into standards mode by specifying a DOCTYPE.
You can remove that attribute from the template XHTML and try the following in your CSS:
html, body {
height: 100%;
form#wwvFlowForm {
position: relative;
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
div.t13BodyMargin {
padding-bottom: 2em;
div.t13NewBottom {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
}Note there was Re: Support for non-quirks HTML mode.
If you're determined on going down the standards route, you should check your pages against a validator and fix any other invalid mark-up in the templates, but achieving 100% compliance is unlikely due to APEX engine-generated code you have no control over.
However, if you have no real requirement for introducing the DOCTYPE declaration and are not prepared to pursue the additional effort in achieving near-compliance, it's pointless to do so as it will only introduce this kind of issue. -
Hello I have this message "The tag name: "embed" Not found in

validate one of my pages in my site, the page contains a flash
picture/animation. Please can anyone explain how I can correct this

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Steve> how I can correct this error?
You don't. You ignore it. The <embed> tag is not valid
HTML, but it is
required to have reliable rendering of your Flash across
various browsers.

I had authored a few pages in HTML4.0 using templates, and all was well. I decided to convert them to xhtml 1.0 transitional. So I modified the tags to lower case and closed everything and it all validates.
The problem is that in Dreamweaver, it is indicatinga syntac error and I can't figure out why. The result of this is that the Template path substitution breaks, rendering the generated pages totaly munged.
Here is the head section:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<link href="../common/weddings.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
And here is the screen showing the error:

<script src="../common/checkflash.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript" />
to
<script src="../common/checkflash.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript"></script>
Still not sure if this is proper markup that DW is screwing up, or if it's improper markup and DW has identified it, although on the wrong line

When we start the internet or navigate to a new page, a new tab opens with the following alert: "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." We "x" out of it, but a new tab, with the same alert appears. The problem occurs again when we try to navigate to another web page. A real nuisance.
