i have 1 error that is stopping me validating my website here is the error any body got a suggestion to fix this
Remove the / from this meta tag: <meta name="verify-v1" content="r00BJaV3Ml63+PdabAeg1LESxJYFM+mVkaoIfJObNiI=" /> Also be sure to specify a content type with your HTML page. The link below (about halfway down the first post) will give you more information on content types: http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?t=428205
Ok. Next step is to find out what the HTTP headers are sending out for a character encoding. If you're not sure, try adding a UTF-8 character encoding to your file via the META tag, then save your page AS UTF-8 and re-validate. It would be best to save it as a separate copy in case something goes wrong though. Then run it through the W3C validator again. If you get a mis-match (let's say ISO-8859-1) then switch the content type to the appropriate Content-Tpe (again, using ISO-8859-1 as an example) and save it as such (or "Latin1" if ISO isn't available, once again, using ISO-8859-1 as an example).
