    Hey guys,

    I realize this is somewhat of a beginner question, so no making fun of me!

    My blog, Correr Es Mi Destino, has quite a few validation errors.

    I'd love to fix them, but I don't know where to start. Are the errors supposed to be fixed in the php files of my blog?

    Anybody to show me where to start? I would appreciate!

    Thank you

    Most of your errors is due to unclosed tags. For example a span tag should start with <span> and end with </span>. Since you are using Xhtml Strict doctype, based on which your document is validated you get these errors.

    You could have avoided it if you had used a text editor with an autocomplete feature. Anyway try these.

    Open you editor and find and replace the following.

    </span to </span>
    /b> to </b>
    b> to <b>
    br /> to <br />
    <center to <center>
    </center to </center>
    class=" to class=""
    </a to </a>
    </li to </li>

    Hope this helps!
