Validation difficulties.

After reading this post , I thought I ought to check my site; I failed (though not quite to his 95!); some problems were easy to fix; however, I’m not sure about some:

1: The calendar – seems to generate 9 errors: I’d included it using the information in this post. , though I do note that it doesn’t seem to be in the current Kubrick template at all (my template is the Kubrick one, with a few modifications.

2: I’ve got a link to encarta to a location that a photo was taken … and that seems to generate a *lot* of errors.
Google Maps doesn’t seem to have the detail that I want in that area of the world – it’s great for the UK (where I live) & seems to have similiar levels of detail for quite a few other parts of the world, though Google Earth does.

I’ve just tried replacing the link to encarta with one to Google Maps, but that didn’t make much difference – clearly the detail in the URL to get to the point that you want isn’t validateable.

For the time being, I’ve used Makeashorterlink – which does validate, but it then has to redirect to the right page, which isn’t as clean as going straight there.

Most of the other errors seem to arise from the side bar things that I’ve added in, (i.e. things that were commented out in the original theme) – and it seems to be mostly lists where they shouldn’t be.

I am still experimenting with things, so I might manage to get the errors down to below the current count of 10)
