Do you have a link to your site?

Of course: http://www.foolforfood.de (in german)

[url=http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.foolforfood.de%2F]172 Errors, 62 warning(s)[/url]
What do you expect? Try to lower the numbers ;)

Don't know where to look. Works fine with firefox 3.x, Safari, Opera, IE 6,7.. Tested it on browsershots.org and it was quite ok. Where did you get the number of errors and warnings?

Click on it

Sorry didn't see that as a link.
I know that there are some things not conform. Did that some time ago but most of the errors are due to core programming of b2evo and ads I have. Was no problem in IE 6 or 7.

i detest that.. b2 is one of the most caring about validation cms/blog systems.

agreed.. those and your basic html errors.. however dont freak out.. correcting one or two mistakes would cure 20-30 of them.. and after fixing them be careful..an unclosed tag may screw the whole layout

Thank for your answer. I fixed a lot of "<br />" which helped a lot.

Nevertheless I have this and others like this that belongs to the widget "category list":

# Error Line 74, Column 15: end tag for "li" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified

</script> </ul>

You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".

I don't know how to access this as it seems it really is part of core programming. I looked at the widget file "coll_category_list.widget.php" but couldn't find anything about <ul> or <li> in it.

it's not widget related..

you either have to remove the <ul> </ul>tags from your 'nav' container or choose the easyway and insert your google ad code like this

<li>#  <script type="text/javascript"><!--
# google_ad_client = "pub-7637784212609163";
# /* Text-Link-Balken 08.01.08 */
# google_ad_slot = "5213972709";
# google_ad_width = 468;
# google_ad_height = 15;
# //-->
# </script>
# <script type="text/javascript"
# src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
# </script></li>

Thanks, tilqicom!
I wouldn't have looked there.

Only two errors left: One error concerning the search field:

Line 104, Column 330: document type does not allow element "div" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag

…Field" /><div class="search_options"><div class="search_option"><input type="

The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.

One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "<span>", or "<font>").

I looked at the _coll_search_form.widget.php file and found that code:

form_formstart( $Blog->gen_blogurl(), 'search', 'SearchForm' );
		echo '<p>';
		$s = get_param( 's' );
		echo '<input type="text" name="s" size="25" value="'.htmlspecialchars($s).'" class="SearchField" />';

		if( $this->disp_params[ 'disp_search_options' ] )
		{
			$sentence = get_param( 'sentence' );
			echo '<div class="search_options">';
			echo '<div class="search_option"><input type="radio" name="sentence" value="AND" id="sentAND" '.( $sentence=='AND' ? 'checked="checked" ' : '' ).'/><label for="sentAND">'.T_('All Words').'</label></div>';
			echo '<div class="search_option"><input type="radio" name="sentence" value="OR" id="sentOR" '.( $sentence=='OR' ? 'checked="checked" ' : '' ).'/><label for="sentOR">'.T_('Some Word').'</label></div>';
			echo '<div class="search_option"><input type="radio" name="sentence" value="sentence" id="sentence" '.( $sentence=='sentence' ? 'checked="checked" ' : '' ).'/><label for="sentence">'.T_('Entire phrase').'</label></div>';
			echo '</div>';
		}
		echo '</p>';
		echo '<input type="submit" name="submit" class="submit" value="'.T_('Search').'" />';
		echo '</form>';

Is there anything wrong? Or ist the error again elsewhere?

In /inc/widgets/widgets/_coll_search_form.widget.php find and replace thw following section ( approx lines 103 -> 141 )

	/**
	 * Display the widget!
	 *
	 * @param array MUST contain at least the basic display params
	 */
	function display( $params )
	{
		global $Blog;

		$this->init_display( $params );

		// Collection search form:
		echo $this->disp_params['block_start'];

		$this->disp_title();

		form_formstart( $Blog->gen_blogurl(), 'search', 'SearchForm' );
		echo '<p>';
		$s = get_param( 's' );
		echo '<input type="text" name="s" size="25" value="'.htmlspecialchars($s).'" class="SearchField" />';
