Help ----- <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
When I validate my site, it is saying the trailing "/" at the end is invalid and shouldn't be there. However, all I see is code with this. Can some code experts chime in here, I'm a little confused. "The sequence <FOO /> can be interpreted in at least two different ways, depending on the DOCTYPE of the document. For HTML 4.01 Strict, the '/' terminates the tag <FOO (with an implied '>'). However, since many browsers don't interpret it this way, even in the presence of an HTML 4.01 Strict DOCTYPE, it is best to avoid it completely in pure HTML documents and reserve its use solely for those written in XHTML. " |
You need to specify the doctype. Add this to the top of your page:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> |
Maybe because it's missing a space before the trailing slash?
Code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> |
GFY timed out. Anyway, replace the HTML tag with this too:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> More info here: http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list.html |
Thanks guys, I'll give that a try.
