According to the W3C HTML Validation Service  (http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.fuckmicrosoft.com&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=%28detect+automatically%29) fuckmicrosoft.com doesn't validate as HTML 3.2.

Thanks for looking away for a few minutes. Your girl was fantastic. New meaning to open source, I suppose.

Well I guess badconnections.net doesnt follow w3c standards either.Apparently I have no character encoding. Also:

Fatal Error: no document type declaration; will parse without validation

Simply put maybe if Im bored one day Ill get my site up to standards.

i havent found a webpage where that validator works. Every line of my website isnt up to standards. It says that /html (took off thingys) should have been at the top of the page?????!!!

As long as you remember to close every tag you open, your site is as valid as valid can be.

Maybe the validator took one look at your code and was making a joke by saying: "Maybe when you thought about writing a web page you should have 'ended' that thought before 'starting' it."

A LOT of sites don't validate.  These "validation" services have outlived their usefulness.  As I learned in the real world of working on Fortune 500 corporate websites (British Airways, anyone?  Texaco?  Met Life?  How about American Express?), the best way to make sure your site is OK is to check it on a variety of browser and platform combos.

You were saying?
