I am in a JavaScript class, and we have to get all of our code to validate at the w3c website... Here is my code, it does what I want it to do which is require the user to enter the name and either the address of the email address, but when I try to validate it through w3c, I get the following errors... Can anyone help?

Here are the errors...
Validation Output: 2 Errors
1. Warning Line 26, Column 47: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data.
else if (document.form1.address.value == "" && document.form1.email.value == "")
This message may appear in several cases:
* You tried to include the "<" character in your page: you should escape it as "<"
* You used an unescaped ampersand "&": this may be valid in some contexts, but it is recommended to use "&", which is always safe.
* Another possibility is that you forgot to close quotes in a previous tag.
2. Warning Line 26, Column 48: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data.
else if (document.form1.address.value == "" && document.form1.email.value == "")

* You tried to include the "<" character in your page: you should escape it as "<"
