So I am trying to code a wordpress theme I designed but I am sort of a beginer at coding. I have finished the main files of the template and am now trying to validate it but there's this one error I can't get rid of: Line 29, Column 4: unclosed start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES. <a href="http://localhost/wordpress" id="blogtitle">Blog Name</a> ✉ The construct <foo<bar> is valid in HTML (it is an example of the rather obscure “Shorttags†feature) but its use is not recommended. In most cases, this is a typo that you will want to fix. If you really want to use shorttags, be aware that they are not well implemented by browsers. Code (markup): Here's the peice of code it has a problem with: <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" id="blogtitle"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a> Code (markup): Does anyone have any idea of why this does not validate?
