Hi friends. I want to make my site W3C validated. I have checked with the validator and I am getting around 250+ errors . What is the exact way to solve this errors? I have tried to solve it but not able to solve it. Please help me. Thanks in advance.
If it is a CMS then the chances of correcting all those errors are slim to none. If you have coded the site yourself then I don't what the problem is in correcting them as the validator lists them for you.
Do you have a link to the content? It is difficult to say what the errors are and the best way to remedy them without seeing the content.
Sometimes one error will cause a cascading effect, i.e., multiple errors caused by one other error like forgetting a closing tag on an element. Just start from the top and work your way down the list.
yeah, it's amazing how one little mistake like forgetting to place a closing tag on a meta tag can lead to the validator listing many mistakes. Although using a blog, like a CMS, can be difficult to completely correct because the fault of the errors can lie deep within the coding.
http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/ Install this with Firefox. I use it a lot. When you view source it gives you hints and can also show you on which lines the errors occur. It doesn't pick up as many errors as the W3C validator so sometimes it will say your page is fine when it isn't, BUT, it's often much easier to see where your mistakes are and it also doesn't give you crazy error messages that make no sense in English or any other language. Other than that just make sure you're using the right doctype with the code you're using. If you're using HTML 4.0 code with an XHTML doctype you're going to get bezillions of messages, also make sure you close all your declarations, <p>like so</p> and putting a slash at the end of images, etc.
Really we would need a link. From that we can point out errors. I'll help you if your ready (it could take a while). Are you able to change the code yourself?
when solving errors from code validation ALWAYS start from TOP to bottom hence FIRST listed error NEEDS to be corrected first, step by step including any changes needed if you use templates
If it's a free blog then I don't think you can. Just cause I notice all links in your sig are to blogspot.
