    Following are solutions, please fix your code a/c to following line and your page will be validated

    ERROR 1:
    *******
    Valid Code:
    <td width="76%" style="border-color:#FFFFFF;"><span class="style10">How to start a n
    Code (markup):

    ERROR 2 and 3:
    ***********
    All you have to do, is to add alt attribute in <img> tag.
    For example:
    ...g/left.jpg" width="165" height="21" [B]alt="myimage"[/B] />
    Code (markup):
    ERROR 4:
    *******
    Error Line 156 column 47: there is no attribute "background".

    Code (markup):
    ERROR 5:

    Valid Code:
    <td width="1%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"></td></tr>
    Code (markup):

    To fix this error, move the <script></script> tag just before you are starting body tags, like.

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My page</title>
    <script>___________________</script>
    </head>
    <body>
    ___________________
    Code (markup):

    If you still have problems please let me know, and if you found this post helpful please add it to my Reputation :)

    Thanks

    Giving the OP the full code will make it a lot easier for them. They would have used the validate function and couldn't figure it out, which is why they posted here and asked for help

    In the long run, it is counter productive; it is like the old saw, "give a man a fish, and he eats for a day, teach him to fish, and he eats forever". Giving the OP the corrected code does nothing to help him understand and fix the next batch of errors. Showing him what each error message means, and how to fix it will help him to not only understand the validator, but will help him avoid the error in the first place. That's a lot more helpful than just giving him the answer.

    You may believe otherwise, but belief does not replace good forum practice.

    cheers,
