I created a page and I have tried to validate numerous times with no success. My page is still showing 3 errors... I have been working on these for hours and I can really use some help..
The codes are as follows:
Below are the results of checking this document for XML well-formedness and validity.
Error Line 7, column 9: an attribute value specification must be an attribute value literal unless SHORTTAG YES is specified .
<p class=MsoNormal>
Error Line 8, column 19: document type does not allow element "div" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag .
<div align="center">
The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.
One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "<span>", or "<font>").
✉
Error Line 17, column 6: end tag for "p" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified .
</body>
You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
✉
Info Line 7, column 0: start tag was here .
<p class=MsoNormal>
