Hi James,
Thank you for the response. I have installed the plugin you suggested and attempted to troubleshoot, and there was no change to my back end editor. I dont know how to insert an image into the post to show you what I mean.
@sterndata thank you very much for the reply it is much appreciated!
So there is no problem with my html just the tool I am using to audit my site? That is a huge relief!
thank you
