    I can’t find anywhere to download this template. I found the thread talking about it, but I can’t find a link.

    Can anybody help me out?

          What parts are not validating? What snippets are you using in your template? If you are using snippets with templates that don’t validate, then that is probably your problem.

            Might also be worth noting which version of the template you are using as there are at least 3.

              Sorry i was trying it with multiflex 4 but now I’m using 5 and it validates fine.

              Actually I’m using the weather snippet and I’m getting 4 errors so it doesnt validate anymore. I might sound ignorant but I’ve read validation is more or less not that important. I’ve always thought it was but hey I see many of the most popular and biggest websites that don’t validate and they’re doing awesome..

                What weather snippet are you using? If it is WeatherX, it should be fully templateable so that you can get it to validate.

                  Standards are established for a reason and if your site validates it will do better than an unvalid site in browsers.

                  Here is one page on why validate: http://www.joyofcode.com/blog/check_it_out1.html

                  Personally I think it’s a sign of a more professional website and there isn’t a good reason not to validate your site unless your just careless in which case why bother trying to check your site in several browsers or even bother considering your site design?

                    I know you can change it around to validate but theres an <img> tag that I have to modify and I can’t seem to find where to modify it.. Heres the main part of the errors.

                    #  Warning  Line 240, Column 94: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "C".

                    AMD:
                    I agree it does add to professionalism, thanks for the link

                      AMD: LOL its funny that link to the page (http://www.joyofcode.com/blog/check_it_out1.html) advocating validation takes me to a page that does not validate laugh
                      I still agree validation is important.
