    Moz 1.5a, forum header, reviews

    I guess the forum header is an obvious one.

    Also, there are big issues with the positioning of the 'next page' link on the review pages. (look half way up on both shots).

    Reason for the non-XHTML compliance is that the site template and structure are compliant but the reviews are still coded by reviewers in HTML and they are not aware of the full compliance issues. We will be reorganising this so that we can get XHMTL compliance.

    However, some of the banner ads are Flash and the <embed> tag is not XHTML compliant so the page will never be rendered without any warnings. No way round this until Macromedia sort out their issues with the W3C.

    The next page and previous page move slightly for me dependant on the content of the page but never to the extent indicated on your screenshot. I may have to drop the CSS for them and move back to a table. What browser and OS are you using when you see this issue please ?

    Windows (you can tell from the GUI) with mozilla build 2003071814 (aka 1.5a). you could also tell that from the screenshot.

    I had forgotten I blocked your ads. Sneaky trick you have

    there are a number of ways to skin browsers and operating systems so whilst it looked like mozilla and XP it always pays to be sure......

    Given that you're using an alpha version of a browser im going to wait until 1.5 is production build before looking at this issue as it doesn't happen in 1.4. Feel free to feed this back to mozilla as a potential bug in their CSS code

    What isn't XHTML compliant in our articles? table, div and img tags are all I use, all are valid XHTML as far as I'm aware.

    align="center" is not valid.
    Elements with single open and close tags e.g. <br> and <img> are never closed. They should be <br /> <img src-"blah.gif" />
    All img tags need an alt tag even if it is blank

    the list goes on.....

    If you give me a list then, I can make sure

    Little perplexed why we haven't been told already, but there you go.

    list is huge. Reason I haven't told anyone is because with the new backend you won't need to enter any HTML at all (with the exception of tables for results and possible some bulleted lists) so you don't need to worry about XHTML compliance.

    Just leave it for the moment. If you change what you are doing now then it makes my job much harder for when I strip out the tags in the backend later on as I'll be looking for <br> and <br /> tags instead of just one

    I noticed on some reviews that all the &nbsp; tags had the ; left off the end.

    the next page links don't appear halfway up the screen, it just happens that your browser isn't loading the content fast enough and the links are loaded in too quickly. If you refresh the page then they will appear at the bottom as the text should be cached then. There are some upgrades coming which will address this issue.
