I’m desperate for held . Could someone help.
what’s your question? what errors are you getting?
Thanks Te Calleja for replying .
Below are few errors messages displayed upon validating “http://www.womenrich.com/?p=1” in http://validator.w3.org/
My question is :
1)How to know where this error located. It the code for example under footer.php”
2)How to download all theme codes in order to identify the error line and column
3)The last question how to fix the error.
Line 56, Column 95: reference to entity “title” for which no system identifier could be generated
Line 56, Column 109: general entity “notes” not defined and no default entity
Line 61, Column 234: required attribute “alt” not specified
Let’s start off with changing your permalinks. In your wp dashboard, under the settings tab, click on permalinks and change the settings to something other than default (day and name, month and name, or numeric — its up to you). I think that will help reduce the number of errors, and we can take a look at the others afterward.
Thanks again Te calleja I have done my research on the net and figure out how to change permalinks and did so.
But no luck with errors .
Any suggestions .
Does anyone knows HOW to fix HTML errors.
did you click the ‘show source’ option and revalidate on w3c? It then shows you your source code so you can investigate further
Plenty of people know how to fix errors, it can be time-consuming to track down even with full access to the code and can be like trying to diagnose car trouble without being able to open the bonnet when you only have access to the front end.
Several of the errors you are getting seem to be related to incorrectly nested xhtml and the messages shown in the validator does give some clues
As an example, the first error I can see is:
Line 62, Column 35: document type does not allow element “div” here; assuming missing “li” start-tag
<div class=”searchdivleft”>
To validate, all this stuff needs to be enclosed within in a list item so it needs a <li>
before the first <div>
and a </li>
after the last </div>
You could probably replace that div with an li. If there’s a file in your theme called searchform, it may be in there or it may be in your sidebar template.
<div class="searchdivleft">
<div class="searchdivright">
<form id="searchform" method="get" action="">
<input type="text" name="s" id="s" value="Search..." onfocus="if (this.value == 'Search...') {this.value = '';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Search...';}" />
<input type="submit" name="searchbtn" id="searchbtn" value="Go" />
</form>
</div>
</div>
It does look as if the theme you have built on had at least some of the same errors you got before you made any change. Perhaps the developer has an improved version available?

I tried my best for the past 2 days my best but no luck to solve even one error . I guess that is because I’m new in blogging.
I anyone can guide with the steps to solve one error my blog for example the below error Then that will be a great help as I will follow the same for the rest. :

This is usually a cascading error caused by a an undefined entity reference or use of an unencoded ampersand (&) in an URL or body text. See the previous message for further details.
