Please Please help with these errors

Not sure about the td attribute, but the rest sounds like you've forgotten a ">" at the end of your meta tag.

where you validate this?

no all the > are in the meta

i am validating it through dreamweaver

The errors you have seem quite verbose already, have you tried reading them?

hi what do you mean

The error messages, reading them, have you tried?

yes i have

If at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again

Bored of waiting for you to figure it out yourself.


The tag: "td" doesn't have an attribute: "background" in currently active versions.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]

You cannot include blackround="somebackground" attributes in your <td ... > elements. Just as the error states.


Nesting error, "meta" should be closed before closing "head"[XHTML 1.0 transitional]

As rowan hinted, the meta tag hasn't been closed properly, just as the error states.


The tag:"link" is not allowed within: "meta" It is only allowed within: head.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]

Your <meta>...</meta> element cannot contain <link .. /> elements ie. external stylesheets, just as the error states.


The tag:"style" is not allowed within: "meta" It is only allowed within: head.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]

Once again, Your <meta>...</meta> element cannot contain <style ..>...</style> elements, just as the error states.


The tag:"meta" is not allowed within: "meta" It is only allowed within: head.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]

By the sounds, you have opened a meta tag rather than closing an existing one as rowan hinted. Just as the error...

i like poo :)
