Why this now??

3 years ago, this site was validated to strict XTHML and when I went
back to check it today, it now tells me it not.

I have the closing </p> and </div>.

So why the changes since I have not been on the scene these past 3
years?

Thanks

Either it didn't validate three years ago, or the code has been
changed since.

No you don't, not in all cases.
So why the changes since I have not been on the scene these past 3
years?
The XHTML 1.0 standard hasn't changed in that time.

Self evident error. There is no title attribute for the script
element.
2.Line 36, column 5: end tag for "p" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was
specified
</div>

3.Line 28, column 0: start tag was here (explain...).
<p style="font-size:6pt">
You open a div on line 24. You open a paragraph on line 28. You don't
close the paragraph. You close the div on line 36. Hence the error.

You open a pagraprah on line 43. You don't close that paragraph. You

In XHTML all elements must be closed. <img> is not allowed it must be
either <img></img> or <img />.

The rest are knock on errors from your unclosed paragraphs.

Whoops. My mistake. The XHTML 1.0 standard was revised in 2002 but all
of the errors in your code would still have been errors before then.
