* Hi. I apologize for my English, I know it is not the best…
The plugin works
fine, but unfortunately the W3C Validator give me 4 errors. Is it possible to
resolve?

* I can look in to it. What’s your site URL? I just ran WC3 Validation on my own
site and all the errors that came back involving the Google +1 Button I don’t
believe are possible to fix, but I can try.

* It looks like the Google +1 Button isn’t WC3 Compliant:

* Hey, I just posted a article about this here: [http://james-ingham.co.uk/posts?p=google-plusone-w3c-valid](http://james-ingham.co.uk/posts?p=google-plusone-w3c-valid).
Just chuck it in a document.write using javascript and you’ll pass w3c (although
it isn’t valid). Example code is in that post.

* The simplest way to make Google Plus One code to validate:
Just put instead of . Drawbacks: you cannot
add parameters such as ‘count’ or ‘size’, or the code will not be valid any more.
It’s Google’s proposed code for HTML5, but will work for other (X)HTML flavours.
In HTML5 you CAN add parameters such as ‘data-count’, data-size’, etc.

* I have the same Problem with my site [http://www.sususumm-shop.de](http://www.sususumm-shop.de).
I’ve put a googgle +1 in my code and after that there was an error in my validation
like:
Line 206, Column 56: Element name g:plusone cannot be represented as XML
1.0. Is this a google error or can i do something against it.

* Both twitter and facebook use iframe’s. The nasty javascript code they supply
runs on the clients PC after your page has been sent to the client and inserts
HTML code into your page. How dare it not be W3C compliant! After being annoyed
by this I created my own buttons and a php script to fetch the counter values
so I could insert them into my page myself BEFORE the client receives it.
* ```
// get twitter count
$url = 'http://www.YOURDOMAINHERE.COM';
$twitterUrl = 'http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json';
$twitterQuery = urlencode($url) . '&callback=twttr.receiveCount';
$twitterStr = file_get_contents("$twitterUrl?url=$twitterQuery");
$s = strpos($twitterStr, '{');
$e = strpos($twitterStr, '}');
$l = $e - $s + 1;
$jsonTwitter = json_decode(substr($twitterStr, $s, $l), true);
$twitterCount = $jsonTwitter['count'];
// get facebook count
$url = 'http://www.YOURDOMAINHERE.COM';
$facebookUrl = 'http://graph.facebook.com';
$facebookQuery = urlencode($url);
$facebookStr = file_get_contents("$facebookUrl?ids=$facebookQuery");
$jsonFacebook = json_decode($facebookStr, true);
$facebookCount = $jsonFacebook[$url]['shares'];
```
