I have several input fields on my form, and the form works; however, Visual
Studio is showing errors, and I would like to get rid of them.
When the form is submitted, it is redirected back to itself, where it checks
the values that were entered.
If the default values are set, this is the visitor's first time to access
the page.
Example: The FirstName field would initially be displayed with "First Name;"
but, this value would not be valid for submitting the form.
If non-default values are available, they are validated before being
collected (i.e. FirstName can not be blank).
If a page is not valid, a note is displayed next to the failed fields and
all fields are populated with their previous values.
Example:
<input type="text" name="FirstName"><%Request.Form("FirstName")%></input>
<span><%Response.Write(strFirstNameErr)%></span>
For my html header, I use this format:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
Visual Studio is giving me this error for the </inputtags:
Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Element 'input' is an empty element and
cannot have a closing tag. Instead, it must end with />.
What is the best way to correct this?

A far better approach would be to check the value of the "submit" button.

Nice crystal ball, Adrienne!
As for specifying Transitional and XHTML, I'm just using something I
found on another's HTML page.
How would I code my HTML using DocType and HTML? Any suggestions? I
take them, you know! :)
