yabba,

thank you for your help. there must have been some haste in my writing and certainly a lack of understanding how that validator works.

i misunderstood how the validator relayed the message and was checking for those highlighted tags such as /a, /body, etc. since i already had them, I thought they were false readings.

thanks again.
