Why isn't w3 validator reading my entire code?

    I've tried using a few different doc-types but the w3 validator still doesn't like to finish reading all of my code.

    My site is http://www.electro-cigs.com/starter-kits.php

    I've got the validator down to 9 errors but I'd like to have it down to zero.

    Can anyone shed some light on this?

    when i check it says 38 errors - the only way to fix all errors is to go through each one the w3 validator shows you & fix them

    Just checked again - 9 Errors. I'm using utf-8 and XHTML 1.0 Strict.

    All 9 errors listed are due to them not seeing all my code.

    Even my FF.13 couldn't see the closings, i.e. </body> and </html> :)
    The last lines that could be detected are these:
    
    ...
    
    <div class="clear left">
    	
    <!-- Assign Variables -->
    	
    <!-- End Assign Variables -->
    
    <br />
    HTML:
    Possibly a not working PHP's include/require ?

    I've done some research and found that the w3 validator just doesn't like php coding - especially includes. Seem that there are many other with the same problem.

    I'm comfortable that all my code is valid - but it would be nice to have a major validator agree.
