W3C validation problem

**wilson_li** · 9 Aug 2011, 03:51 AM

Hello all,

I have a W3C validation problem with my website, when I ran the W3C validator it showed me there was one error (it is weird that HTML validator reported that was only a warning)

Line 161, Column 5: end tag for "ul" which is not finished

I looked through my tpl_product_info_display file and cannot locate where the exact line was.

PHP Code:


<!--bof-navigation display -->

<div id="navSuppWrapper">

<div id="navSupp">

[B]<ul>

<!-- <li><a href="http://www.oleklejbzon.com/campbellsloft3/">Home</a></li> -->

</ul>[/B]

</div>

</div>

<!--eof-navigation display -->

Am I checked the wrong file?

Code:

<!-- <li><a href="http://www.oleklejbzon.com/campbellsloft3/">Home</a></li> --></ul>[/b]

Why are those there??

The comment? But I don't find any comment to "Home" around "navigation display". Kobra, should I look into the tpl_product_info_display.php file or else?

Code:

<!--bof-navigation display -->
<div id="navSuppWrapper">
<div id="navSupp">
<ul>
<!-- <li><a href="http://www.oleklejbzon.com/campbellsloft3/">Home</a></li> -->
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<!--eof-navigation display -->

You need to check includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_footer.php

thanks clyde! Just take out the <ul> block here since I don't see any necessary sorting here.

Oh, by the way Clyde and kobra do you guys know how to fix the display problem with my website under IE.

I tested my website under Firefox 5.0 and Chrome both working fine, however it screwed up under IE.....

I tried to create another ie.stylesheet.css so that make it work in both IE and non-IE explorer but it still doesn't work.

Any suggestion I can avoid this problem?

PHP Code:


/*#productAdditionalImages {

width:auto;

float: left;

clear: both;



}

This is my ie.stylesheet.css is there anything missing?

IE is like Baskin Robbins - - there are many flavors
Which one are you seeing this in and exactly what is it that you see as deficient

"All screwed up" does not aid us in determining anything
