 * I have received the following CSS errors from the WC3:
    * Line: 90 Context : 
   p , li , .feedback Invalid number : letter-spacing100% is not a letter-spacing
   value : 100% * Line: 100 Context : .credit Invalid number : font-sizeVerdana 
   is not a font-size value : Verdana,Geneva,serif * Line: 223 Context : #menu ul
   li Invalid number : letter-spacing100% is not a letter-spacing value : 100% *
   Line: 242 Context : #menu ul ul li Invalid number : letter-spacing100% is not
   a letter-spacing value : 100% at [http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ftest.stroh.org%2F&usermedium=all](http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ftest.stroh.org%2F&usermedium=all)
   Main site: [http://test.stroh.org](http://test.stroh.org) CSS File: [http://test.stroh.org/wp-layout.css](http://test.stroh.org/wp-layout.css)
   This is a site where I am testing out skins, pugins, etc. before creating the
   actual site. I don’t know enought about CSS to know what is wrong with my stylesheet,
   but would appreciate the help making it comply with the standards. While you 
   are looking at the site, do you have any recommendations?

 * Can anyone tell me how to get rid of the blue line that borders my footer? I’d
   appreciate it.
    Thanks. -stroh

 * letter-spacing: 100%
    – try ’em’ values’ for spacing instead. Always make sure
   that each declaration ends with ; It’s not absolutely required for the last declaration
   in a statement, but it’s good practice. When the validator reports errors in 
   declarations that cover several issues, break them down to their constituent 
   parts. It makes the css file a tiny bit longer, but it’s much easier to read 
   and bughunt in.

 * Blue line:
    `.credit { /* credits-background = #036 */ background: #FFCCEE; border-
   top: solid 1px #9cf; Red line: .credit { /* credits-background = #036 */ background:#
   FFCCEE; border-top: solid 1px #ff0000; <—change that value 🙂

 * Thanks for the help with the colors.
    Do you have any recommendation for what’
   em values’ to use, unfortunately I don’t know enough about css to know what to
   use.
