definition of inane: 'lacking sense or substance'

A client has downloaded their CF site. As it is, the CF server does not throw 
any errors on any of the pages from the site. However, the client has 
dreamweaver and they have run code validation on it. They are concerned with 
all of the errors that the dreamweaver code validation is showing. I have said 
that the code validation is not perfect and it shows errors when there really 
isn't.

I don't bother with dreamweaver. I just like  plain HomeSite. Out of 
curiousity, I just checked a few pages with the code validation in HomeSite and 
it's showing  up with errors that are not really there like 'cfhtp tag is 
missing optional closing tag', 'there is a missing <td> tag' - I check and 
there really isn't. I have some conditional <cfif> code in <input> tag and it's 
throwing up an error that it's not a valid attribute - I'm expiring a cookie 
with 'now' and the error says it's missing the value  attribute - and on and on 
like that.

What is your take code validation? What do I say when the client wants code 
that passes the code validation test?
