    css problem Validating my Stylesheet - Help

    Hi everyone,

    My HTML has validated no problem but I still have 4 errors in my stylesheet that I really want to correct but don't know how. All the errors are the same thing and are on lines: 63, 64, 129, 130 - the error being...

    Value Error: width Parse Error

    I don't understand what this means! I know parsing is about seperating pages into blocks or something like that but I have checked all my width rules and can't find anything wrong.

    my stylesheet can be found here...

    http://www.the-vstore.com/includes/t...stylesheet.css

    Im using version 1.3.7

    Thanks in advance for any help

    Dan

    Line 63 is in red

    Code:
    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    	margin: 0.3em 0;
    	}
    Change it to
    Code:
    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    	margin: 0.3em 0em;
    	}
    and see if that helps. It should correct the errors you're getting on lines 63 and 64.

    Sorry Mary Ellen, but you do not need to add a unit of measurement when the quantity is zero.

    And when I checked that stylesheet -- both by pasting it in and by setting the URL -- at the W3C CSS validator, it validated with absolutely no erros.

    I've found that some errors can be displayed when no unit of measurement is used even if the value is 0. It may depend on the validator (too strict). I didn't see anything else that could possibly be wrong in that section and didn't see any errors on the other lines he's getting the error on.

    woohoo!

    I'm so silly, I had been only typing in my URL into the CSS validator. when i typed in the exact path to the stylesheet it validated as Rob said.

    thankyou both for your help and sorry if i wasted your time lol!
