Re: [WSG] Why wont this validate

[Kim Kruse]

Wow that was fast... and I've been struggling with this for the last 2 
hours. I have things to learn :o)

There where as Patrick and others wrote 2 problems. The missing  closing 
tag and the hidden fields should be wrapped in an block element. In this 
case <p> tags as moving the hidden field into the field set made the 
<legend> tag stretch across the field set. Problem solved and a lesson 
learned.

Thank you all.

element (in your case, move it into the fieldset which immediately follows it). Also, as it's an empty element, you need 
to make it self-closing
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="1" />

Subject: [WSG] Why wont this validate
Hi,
I'm doing server side validating on a form and I get some 
errors I'm not 
able to decrypt.

So if someone have the time to take a look here 
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www.mouse
   

riders.dk/kontakt.php%3Fsubmitted%3D1%26afsnavn%3D%26afsemail%3D%> 26afstelefon%3D%26afskommentar%3D
 

and please tell me what the errors means. I don t understand why a 
hidden field should be wrapped in <p> tags for instance?

Please be patient... I'm learning :o)
Kim
