Hi i’m currently modifying the modxhost template for my site aiming to make it look quite different and in time completely it’s own but as i’m new to this style of cms site management i’m going slowly and trying to learn as i do it.
anyway there are some "Meta" web standards links on the template in the sidebar which is great but clicking on them returns errors, i could just remove them but figured web standards are a good thing, so would be nice if these validator things worked...
here is what the "Valid XHTML" one outputs:
Validation Output: 93 Errors
1. Error Line 7, Column 44: end tag for "base" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
<base href="http://www.insideyork.co.uk/">
You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
2. Info Line 7, Column 2: start tag was here.
<base href="http://www.insideyork.co.uk/">
3. Error Line 8, Column 6: end tag for element "base" which is not open.
</base>
The Validator found an end tag for the above element, but that element is not currently open. This is often caused by a leftover end tag from an element that was removed during editing, or by an implicitly closed element (if you have an error related to an element being used where it is not allowed, this is almost certainly the case). In the latter case this error will disappear as soon as you fix the original problem.
If this error occurred in a script section of your document, you should probably read this FAQ entry.
4. Error Line 59, Column 110: required attribute "alt" not specified.
…/york/GD.jpg" width="93" height="127">
The attribute given above is required for an element that you’ve used, but you have omitted it. For instance, in most HTML and XHTML document types the "type" attribute is required on the "script" element and the "alt" attribute is required for the "img" element.
Typical values for type are type="text/css" for <style> and type="text/javascript" for <script>.
5. Error Line 59, Column 111: end tag for "img" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.
