Pplain english xml resource to solve: use -x <extension> ?

It's been years since putting together a page. This line in my HTML:
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="net4801style.css">

gives this problem (via weblint HTML checker):
attribute 'TYPE' for <link> is extended markup (use -x <extension> to do
this).

Where might be found a resource for simple folk explaining how to best
correct this?

Many thanks.

HTML is not XML. Try an HTML newsgroup.

Sorry. I thought the bit about: "is extended markup (use -x <extension>
to do this)" implied extended markup language. My mistake.

Extended but not Extensible :-)

But in any event there's nothing wrong with your link element.
I've never heard of "extended markup" but I suspect you'll get
better results from using a real HTML parser with the right DTD
than from anything else.
