i am wondering why i can't get my page validated XHTML Strict in the single post view. there is always the same error:
..... document type does not allow element "input" here; missing one of "p",.......
where can i get a XHTML 1.0 Strict valid comments.php?
or is it the "comments_template();" function that does the cheese?
you can see the validation result here:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fadablog.solar-afrika.de%2F2005%2F07%2F23%2Flieber-besucher%2F
the page is here:
http://adablog.solar-afrika.de

Looks like you have a span tag that is incomplete.
'95:
96:
<div class="metadata">27.07.2005 at 09:07 </span>
97: </div><!--div metadata end-->
98: </div><!--div ende jedes Kommentares-->'
Try to fix that and check it out. Alot of times if you have one little mistake it will make the validator spit out a bunch of errors when really its only one thing.
Good luck;)

i fixed it, but it still won't work.
if i insert, instead of the hole comments.php stuff, simply an Potatoe tag, it is strict Xhtml.
so i think the fault has to be in the comments. php or in the function itself... i dunno
oh, i mean simply that i inserted < p > Potatoe < / p >, sorry.
with that tag instead of the hole comments.php, the site is strict valid. What i am fuzzy about is, that i, if i insert some lines of strict written code in an strict xhtml document, how can it be that the two togoether give me a bad result.
ps.:please excuse my english....

Dont worry, your english is fine;) Try taking out the last </div> before </body>. I did that and it validated. Also your comment form is okay so the problem is elsewhere.
so try changing:
<div class="clr"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
to:
<div class="clr"></div>
</body>
</html>
See if that helps.
my footer looks like this in the end:
<div class="clr"></div>
</div>
<?php do_action('wp_footer'); ?>
</body>
</html>
the last</div> tag is a layout element (ends the wrap)
so if i cut that out, my page looks really Picasso!
the error i do not get rid of ist an input type "hidden"...

ok, I see....
I put my comments.php here:
http://pastebin.com/323420
if you think the problem is with this file, compare it to mine. Let me know if this helps.

I got it! i got it!
as i am not a coder or a webdesigner, i do not know why and what exactly is causing the fault w/in the commentsform.
BUT: if i disable the StatTraq plugin (StatTraq 1.0a beta) ,
i get strict Xhtml validated even in the commentsform.
if anyone is able to reproduce the error, perhaps one should feed back the StatTraq team
bump:
is anyone able to reproduce the error?
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/34789
"The official StatTraq is not compatible with WP v1.5.x. Try this version instead: http://www.adsworth.info/files/stattraq-for-1.5-2.zip"
And plenty of other bugs when doing a search for "StatTraq". I even came across a thread where someone recommended to you an alternative stats plugin that doesn't cause problems with XHTML.
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/40510
yes sure, i started this other thread after i thought this one was finished.
I am using WP-ShortStat since, but, it ist not nearly detailed information like Stattraq can give...
OK, i tried your http://www.adsworth.info/files/stattraq-for-1.5-2.zip
but there is still the same error again:
there ist some INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" that is not correctly inserted by Stattraq. I tried it with different comments.php, and there is always the same result...
check it out here:

i don't know. maybe it is my fault, maybe not...
