Ok, Step one:

Fix your template errors:
The first two errors are not too bad but you should not use <font color=
This is what CSS is for.
The 3rd error might have something to do with it though.
Until you fix these we wont know for sure!

it's absolutely unvisible in Opera...

validate, clear and check again

and I am sure, <a href="http://yoursite.com"> is not true either...

hi guys,
thanks for the info, but im still having trouble. please forgive my stupidity and ignorance, but im really not sure what im to do.

the first error was:

# Error Line 19 column 0: unclosed start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES.

<img class="photobox" src="images/20070217225237_img_7867.jpg" title="After the

the error is supposedly at the start, but i tried a number of things and i came out with even more errors!

the second error was:

Error Line 40 column 25: end tag for "p" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.

</font></font></b></div></div>&nbsp;</div>

You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".

i tried what they suggested and still i got more errors again!

the third error is:

# Info Line 30 column 2: start tag was here.

<p align="center"><b><font face="DotumChe" color="#FF9900">


im not really sure what is wrong here. you suggested not using "color=" but i have been using frontpage to change the colours and fonts etc.. is there any way around this?

im not knowledgable about IT and computers so if you could suggest the correct code for these errors, or anything else i could do in VERY SIMPLE language i'd really appreciate it!!!

thank you so much,

dara

OK, in your code you must fix the following in bold.

<a href="index.php?showimage=18">
<img class="photobox" src="images/20070217225237_img_7867.jpg" title="After the Snow Storm" alt="After the Snow Storm" border="0" width="850" height="566" />
</a>

and

<p align="center"><b><font face="DotumChe" color="#FF9900">

has no closing </p>

We try ;)

But please finish validating your code.

You still must close the open P tag.
