 * Hi, I’ve been making a new plugin for a client, that uses custom meta fields.
   I noticed on a clean install of wordpress 2.8 if i try to validate the add/edit
   pages site I get a few errors I suspect from custom fields. Bellow is the errors
   I receive from the w3schools validator:
    character “[” is not allowed in the 
   value of attribute “for” …class=’screen-reader-text’ for=’meta[33][value]’>Value
   </label>
 * On a fresh install I get about 2 errors but after a couple of edits to the page
   I can get about 60+ !!
    Im stumpped anyone have any suggestions? site is running
   on localhost at the moment so cant give you a link to reference.
