Post subject: Errors in HTML
|
 |
|
I had my code validated and it showed quite a few errors. It seems the following error was the most prevalant.....
Line 35, column 4: document type does not allow element "p" here; missing one of "object", "ins", "del", "map", "button" start-tag
<p>Many Christians have not read the Bible in it's complete entirety -
I had used FP to edit by page and i use Website Builder to build it. All my paragraphs start with a <p> and end with a </p>
I thought this was the correct way to code...can someone please let me know where this is wrong.

Can you post your site so I can check?
FP produces incorrect HTML quite often. But let me look at your source and I might be able to give more accurate information...

First, you have a nice layout...very clean.
I ran your site through HTML Tidy (there is a nice plugin for FireFox that validates the source code of any site I browse... very handy.
It comes up with about 59 warnings and no errors.
Most of the warnings stem from the fact that your document type says the document it XHTML STRICT, yet your code is not valid XHTML. You need to lowecase ALL tags and parameters, and close all tags.
Also, you need ALT text on your image tags.
After that, it looks pretty good, so I would start there, fix that and then try validating again. I would also change your document type to XHTML Transitional, since that is more accepted and a bit easier to validate to.

Eric,
Thanks for your help. I was mainly concerned with the content portion of the code. I will go back and check with the person who made the template to see if there is anything that can be done there.
In your opinion, are those errors you are mentioning pretty minor? I assume it will not have any affect on SEO? or not?
Chris

The errors I mentioned should have little to do with the SEO, but it could affect the cross browser part. Your site isn't XHTML compliant (which is the current standard) but it claims to be in the header documents.
Otherwise, I think your pretty safe.
