Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Please help me validate!
Hi
I am trying to get my website to validate, but I am having trouble with it because there are two things which usually I dont use so do not know how to validate - these are swf files (embeds etc) and the google adsense code I have inserted.
The results of the current validation assessment can be viewd here (http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.unofficiallyfleet.com), and the website here (http://www.unofficiallyfleet.com).
Thanks for you help.
I don't know how to pass a flash code throught the validador. But for the rest of the errors, it is easy. You have closed the input tags, which in HTML 4 is an error. Remove the end tags </input>

It wasnt me it was Google - Silly Google!
I'll just go do that now, and see how many error I'm brought down to.
Thanks.
Got 8 Flash errors... working on it!
Anymore help much appreciated!
You will have no luck, nomatter you will do. If your code would not have been nested in a NOSCRIPT tag, you could have used a SWFObject, a javascript code which would have generate the Flash codes, so that it wopuld have passed the validator.

But you have Flash codes there.... So I don't know what you could do...
Thats what you think...! I found some code after a quick google search... take a look...!
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="filename.swf"
width="200" height="200"
id="id">
<param name="movie" value="filename.swf">
<p>You need the Flash plugin.</p>
<p<a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer/">Download Macromedia Flash Player</a></p>
</object>
And it validates! Get in!
yes, it is a validate method, but from the Flash point of view it is not. You may have problems in Safari or even in Opera. And I doubt your movie will start.
They start fine, but its true I have only tested it in IE and FF.
I will download these Opera, but I have Windows so could someone please look at in Safari and tell me what happens it would be much appreciated.

Well hm... that guy simply tried to make a flash work within XHTML. He succeded, but that not means it is XHTML valide. It may work (I mean the browser will run the Flash properly) but it may not pass the W3 validator test.

It's valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional, Strict I'm not so sure about
ok then... Any solution is better than no solution.

One works in Opera, one doesnt!
I will look into... in the mean time if anyone could look in Safari that would be great!
