hi all,

ok, i have placed the blog into my site's template and all has gone well, with the exception of 2 remaining validation errors in xhtml strict that i cannot resolve.

I know that the errors are because i have redesigned the skin (or rather put my template around the blog), but if it is possible for someone knowledgable to have a look and tell me what I have done wrong that would be appreciated. Also, I tend to validate first in page valet, as it lists the code it has read and is clearer in its explanations:

http://valet.webthing.com/page/

The site page is here:

http://www.monkeytreemedia.co.uk/blogb2/

These are the 2 errors:

E: Line 134, char 19, "div" must be enclosed in one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" here .

E: Line 173, char 18, "p" must be enclosed in one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" here .

And this is the code from line 134 down to 203:

Your first error is slightly higher up in your code and is causing your second error, but you also have a third error :p

If you remove the red bits then you'll validate.

thanks loads ¥åßßå i'd never have figured that one out, you're a star.

Not sure what the third one was, but hopefully it was rectified by removing those two bits of code, and it validates now. lovely.

cheers,

jules
