I am designing a site for a friend, but I cannot get the validation to go through.
Here's my code:HTML Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://w3c.org.TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>The Brown Ring of Fury</title> <meta name="author" content="Josh McDonald" /> <meta name="generator" content="notepad" /> <meta name="keywords" content="Greg Richter" /> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.mjmcdonaldfam.com/gregs_stuff/dna.ico" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="header"> <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="350" height="76" id="dna" align="middle"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /> <param name="movie" value="dna.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="best" /> <param name="bgcolor" value="#fff" /> <embed src="dna.swf" bgcolor="#fff" width="350" height="76" id="dna" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /> </object> </div> <div id="cnt"> <div id="mainlinks"> <img src="willispure_logo.gif" alt="our will is pure" /> <a href="" onmouseover="document.getElementById('home').src='home_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('home').src='home.gif'"><img src="home.gif" border="0" id="home" alt="home" /></a> <a href="apoc_affairs.htm" onmouseover="document.getElementById('aa').src='aa_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('aa').src='aa.gif'"><img src="aa.gif" id="aa" alt="Apocalyptic Affairs" /></a> <a href="rectal_health.htm" onmouseover="document.getElementById('drh').src='drh_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('drh').src='drh.gif'"><img src="drh.gif" id="drh" alt="Rectal Health Department" /></a> <a href="faq.htm" onmouseover="document.getElementById('faq').src='faq_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('faq').src='faq.gif'"><img src="faq.gif" id="faq" alt="FAQ" /></a> <a href="movies.htm" onmouseover="document.getElementById('myoovies').src='myoovies_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('myoovies').src='myoovies.gif'"><img src="myoovies.gif" id="myoovies" alt="Movie reviews" /></a> <a href="comments.htm" onmouseover="document.getElementById('comments').src='comments_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('comments').src='comments.gif'"><img src="comments.gif" id="comments" alt="Comments" /></a> <a href="bio.htm" onmouseover="document.getElementById('bio').src='bio_press.gif'" onmouseout="document.getElementById('bio').src='bio.gif'"><img src="bio.gif" id="bio" alt="Staff Bio" /></a> </div> <div id="main"> <!-- Your home page header will go here, between the <h2> and </h2> tags --> <h2></h2> <!-- End home page header --> <!-- Home page content will go here between the <p class="main"> and </p> tags --> <!-- A line can be broken and forced down by adding this tag befor it "<br />"; omit the quotes --> <p class="main"> </p> <!-- End home page content --> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> <ul> <li><a href="">Home</a></li> <li><a href="apoc_affairs.htm">Apocalyptic Affairs</a></li> <li><a href="rectal_health.htm">Department of Rectal Health</a></li> <li><a href="faq.htm">FAQ</a></li> <li><a href="movies.htm">Myoovies</a></li> <li><a href="comments.htm">Comments</a></li> <li><a href="bio.htm">Bio</a></li> <li><a href="">Copyright © Gregory J.

and here is the validation page:HTML Code:Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML parser. 1. Line 24, column 12: there is no attribute "src" <embed src="dna.swf" bgcolor="#fff" width="350" height="76" id="dna" allowScrip You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead). This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information. How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. ✉ 2.

This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Frameset" document type to get the "<frameset>" element), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "<spacer>" or "<marquee>" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
