Annoying little syntax error
Hi,
I have been working on a site for ages now, and 1 week before it goes live I all of a sudden am getting syntax error in the bottom left of the browser window. When opening the error dialogue box up it is saying is it on line 2 but I cant see anything. I recently changed the page from stict to transittional, but I have checked that code and it looks fine. The site uses templates so I am assuming it is on the template as every page in the site has the same error. This is the web address - if you could have a quick look and tell me if anything springs to mind that would be great. http://www.macmillan-academy.org.uk/macweb/index.php Thanks

Re: Annoying little syntax error
As far as I can tell its:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> And it should be: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">

Re: Annoying little syntax error
Hi,
Thanks for the response but my page doesnt current say <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd It says.... <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> I tried changing it to your version but still no luck. Any other suggestions?

Re: Annoying little syntax error
Hmm it did before, FF popped up an error with the doctype. Interesting. Oh well I see no errors on it now.

Re: Annoying little syntax error
Hi,
Thanks I have found the error - it was the make poverty history band on the site. When I commented this out the error was gone. Thanks Adrian
