Hi Eko and guys 'n gals
I had some problems with this and the W3C validator. You could try
prodding the VA banner ad people and pointing out their stuff does
not comply with the W3C standards ! Don't hold your breath waiting
for a reply though. I did get two people to re-write their counter
scripts and a message board script by pointing this out to them, both
said they were going to "get a round tuit" sometime anyway, but my
prompting pushed them into it so'd they could claim a W3C validated
logo for their efforts.
