* Have just completed a W3C valadation check and found that I have heaps of valadation
errors. Most of these I think are due to my host provider Jsuthost converting
html to PHP. (maybe) So can anyone tell me how I fix up my valadation errors,
what is the starting point.
When using Google Chrome for example the wprdpress
blog page will not fully load up . There must be a way to fix all the errors ??
maybe?? Dean

* If there are common errors to many posts, you could simply use phpMyAdmin to
resolve those errors. The W3C check has an option to show you the HTML tidy output,
try that for starters

* id go 1 error at a time, usually solving one validation error solves many.

* Yes, just start at the top of the W3C error list and work your way down. Errors
in one place can trigger lots of other errors later in the page so you may not
have the number of problems you think you have.

* Hi Guys, I arrive at the W3C validation report. I am a bit thick. How do i fix
them up.
This is listed below but has it fixed up any errors as when i run the
validation report again i still get heaps or errors.
* Cleaned-up Source Listing with “HTML-Tidy”
Below is the cleaned up markup for
your document, as processed through HTML-Tidy. HTML-Tidy is a third-party software
not developed at W3C, and its output is provided without any guarantee. What
does all this mean. I keep getting emails from other bloggers stating that my
blog pages do not load up correctly.
* Any help offered will be greatly appreciated.
cheers

* Dean, what sort of errors are you getting ? The WP posts (I’m assuming you are
using wordpress) have your blog content (the posts), plus the WP code wrapped
around it.
* There is little you can do about the WP (HTML) code, but for the other HTML code,
you can change it of course. Just go to dashboard, edit the post, make the changes
as per W3C/html-tidy, and see what it looks like after another W3C validation.
* BUT, ..backup your database before hand. 🙂

* Hi pete_398, Sorry Pete I’m not really sure I follow. When I enter the W3C validation
website I enter my website name and get heaps of errors.
But from that point
onward I do not know what the next step is. On the W3C site it list all the error
and types of errors. This is great but even though I see them listed on the page
I do not know what step #2 is. My website is a wordpress blog.
* You mentioned that I go to the dashboard in my blog but how do I locate the changes
in the dashboard that are identified by the W3C validation website. When I find
out how to fix these changes I will do a video and post it as there must be a
lot of people seeking to correct errors of validation on blogs. Surely this would
help ranking also??
pete-398 if you can help I will forever be eternal.

* allblacks900 – you just need to fix the html errors up at the ‘source’, simply
meaning edit a post or a page appropriately.
