 * I am having the same validation error as this post: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/meta-slider-v-231-xhtml-validation-error?replies=5%22%3Ehttp%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmeta-slider-v-231-xhtml-validation-error](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/meta-slider-v-231-xhtml-validation-error?replies=5%22%3Ehttp%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmeta-slider-v-231-xhtml-validation-error)
 * When I add the code you suggested in the functions.php file it breaks the entire
   slide show.

 * actually my validation error message is slightly different:
 * Line 150, Column 27: Element style is missing required attribute scoped.
 *  <style type=”text/css”>

 * Hi orbitbob,
 * When you paste in the code from the other thread, please make sure the single
   quotes are not being converted to curly quotes. The code should add exactly what
   the html 5 validator is looking for: the scoped attribute.
 * Regards,
    Tom.

 * I even tried manually pasting in the single quotes. What happens is the first
   slide shows up with my custom css messed up and then none of the other slides
   show up. The rest of the site validates just fine.

 * The site is in development so I do not want to post a public link. Is there any
   way to send a link privately?

 * Just posting this for anyone who has found this thread on Google.
 * I’ve been working on a plugin to move the Meta Slider link, inline script and
   style blocks into the <head> of the page:
 * [https://github.com/tomhemsley/ml-slider-html5](https://github.com/tomhemsley/ml-slider-html5)
 * To install, click ‘Download ZIP’, then go to Plugins > Add New > Upload and select
   the .zip file. So far there isn’t a settings page or anything like that.
 * **If you’re using this plugin, please let me know how it goes! I may integrate
   the functionality into the Meta Slider plugin if it’s working well**
 * Regards,
    Tom
