Validation Errors

[lnxusr86]

I have developed a website in XHTML 1.1 and when validating with w3c i get the following errors:

1. Line 205, column 68: end tag for "a" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified
...d CSS!" height="31" width="88" class="img" /></td>

^
2. Line 203, column 34: start tag was here (explain...).
<td class="val2" colspan="4"> <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/">
^
Im not really sure what they mean any help will be much appreciated...

Firstly, your signature is a violation of the Codingforums.com rules, you are only allowed 4 lines max @ a res 800 x 600.

Secondly, in regards to your question, it would be nice if you could post up a url, or the complete lines 203-205.

Can't really do much with what you have got. Chances are you are missing a closing tag somewhere, or have used " />" by accident.

Sorry didnt know about the signiture rule... anyway these are the full lines

200: <td class="val"> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"><img
201: src="images/valid-xhtml10.gif"
202: alt="Valid XHTML 1.0!" height="31" width="88" class="img" /></a></td>
203: <td class="val2" colspan="4"> <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/"><img

203: <td class="val2" colspan="4"> <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/"><img
204: src="images/valid-css.gif"
205: alt="Valid CSS!" height="31" width="88" class="img" /></a></td>

You forgot the closing tag.
