    Default Error message on web site

    Hello,

    On my website I have this error: "Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional" when I click on it it gives me the following information:

    Line 9, Column 0: character data is not allowed here.
    /**✉
    You have used character data somewhere it is not permitted to appear. Mistakes that can cause this error include:

    putting text directly in the body of the document without wrapping it in a container element (such as a <p>aragraph</p>), or
    forgetting to quote an attribute value (where characters such as "&#37;" and "/" are common, but cannot appear without surrounding quotes), or
    using XHTML-style self-closing tags (such as <meta ... />) in HTML 4.01 or earlier. To fix, remove the extra slash ('/') character. For more information about the reasons for this, see Empty elements in SGML, HTML, XML, and XHTML. y wesite I have this error
    I know what the error is, but for the life of me I cannot find the file that it is comming from. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should look. I hate seeing this error on all of my website pages.

    Thanks for the help,

    Default Re: Error message on web site

    Be easier if you posted a link to your site ofr us to see it in context.

    But for it to be that early in the code , i would suggest it is in index.php, html_header or tpl_main page

    easist thing to do , is get your validation to show you the source code , then look at the lines around it for something recognizable. if its near the meta tags then its the html_header .. like that.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply. I finally found the error in html_header.php.

    All my best
