Well, if I've applied patch correctly (possibly not - novice!)
Looks as though it is getting warmer, but still not quite there?
Result: Failed validation, 1 error
File: index.html
Encoding: iso-8859-1
Doctype: HTML 4.01 Transitional
This page is not Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional!
Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML
parser.
1. Error Line 109 column 17: there is no attribute "XMLNS:REV".
<table
xmlns:rev="http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~gregod/boost/tools/doc/revision"; width=
You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the
document type you are using does not support that attribute for this
element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict"
document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the
"Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using
vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed
by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in
the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no
supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message
for further information.
How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute,
(Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed
in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute.
Further suggestions?
Thanks
Paul
