W3C Validator sees wrong code for redirected page

Wally Sanford

http://wallysanford.com is currently being redirected by Namecheap to my
server at home. The link to the W3C Validator has been working fine.
Suddenly, that link causes the Validator to see and properly reject the
following code, apparently some redirection plumbing that's not supposed to
show:

1: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dt d">
2: <HTML>
3: <HEAD>
4: <meta name="DESCRIPTI ON" content="">
5: <TITLE></TITLE>
6: </HEAD>
7: 
8: <FRAMESET ROWS="100%, *" frameborder="no " framespacing=0 border=0>
9: <FRAME SRC="http://24.148.151.165" NAME="mainwindo w"
frameborder="no " framespacing="0 " marginheight="0 " marginwidth="0" ></FRAME>
10: </FRAMESET>
11: <NOFRAMES>
12: <CENTER>
13: <H2>
14: Your browser does not support frames. We recommend upgrading your
browser.
15: </H2>
16: <br><br>
17: Click <a href="http://24.148.151.165" >here</a> to enter the site.
18: </CENTER>
19: </NOFRAMES>
20: </HTML>

Is the W3C Validator broken, or Namecheap's redirection, or something else?

http://wallysanford.com/ is a frameset document that frames your real site,
which is http://24.148.151.165/
The link to the W3C Validator has been working fine.

The W3C validator is validating the frameset document. If you want it to
validate your real site, then you need to pass it that URL.

Why not just drop the IP address of your site into the validator? It then
validates your site, which is what you want it to do.

At the moment, it's validating the code it sees - which is the redirection
code.

Required Field Validator and Focus Question

by: David Hearn | last post by:

I have some required field validators on a form and would like to know if there is a way to set focus back to the field that is required if the validator is triggered. The problem is that the validator is triggered and displays the error message, but it may be up the form so far and out of sight so the user never sees it unless he/she scrolls back up the page. I know there is a validation summary, but it would be nice to have it set focus...
