Re: trying to validate css

I get those two but they are only warnings so I wouldn't think it is realyl anything to worry about.

Re: trying to validate css

Yep, as Phixon says... Dont take any notice of the warnings. On another note i recommend you put the PNG fix in as when i view your site in IE6, the header image isnt transparent.

Yeah I am aware that a fix is needed but haven't looked into it yet. Can you point me in the right direction?

Re: trying to validate css

This is a really weird warning. I've had this happen with transparent backgrounds; the (bizarre) fix was to change background-color: transparent to background-color: inherit.

Of course, you don't need to fix this. It's not an error; your CSS is still valid.

Does the validator actually find your CSS when you do it by URL?
