I am currently working on this site: http://www.switchsw.com
The page validates as XHTML 1.0 strict using the w3c checker, yet if I run the CSS checker, it states this:
Quote:
Please, validate your XML document first!
Line 104
Column 23
Element type "a" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".
This is only happening on the home page and I think i must have gone blind staring at the code trying to find this error.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Steve

<li><a class="serv2 "href="remote-computer-assistance">Remote computer assistance</a></li>
There is a space after your class name and before the quotes and no space after the quotes before the href in line 109.

Thanks Triumph, well spotted.
It's so obvious now! :roll: Staring at code all day just isn't good for me!
I wonder why the w3c validator didn't pick that up though?

I think they are tinkering with their validator. Notice the css validator is throwing up warnings all over the place now. I wonder why the w3c validator didn't pick that up though?

Jigsaw seems to have re-introduced the background/ foreground colour checks as a set of what looks to be accessibility checks as the warnings carry a level 1, level 2 note with them.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for fixing the Internet Explorer bug on this page: http://www.switchsw.net/home
I am presuming it is the "Guillotine" bug but I have tried several of the known fixes and internet explorer is still cutting the text off short in the floated Virus and Trojans paragraph.
Here is an image for some clarification.
