I see those errors - caught out by Firefox again! I used the Firefox File menu 'Save Page as' menu command to save that one page from the website with the style sheet and the images onto my public server. Unfortunately Firefox re-parsed the HTML and munged some of it, which is causing the validation errors. I used Transitional because I use Java Server Pages and some of the helper code I used outputs <img target='_xxxx'> HTML. I'll ditch that now and use Strict. That JSP code was out-of-date anyway. I had no idea (again) that the transitional doc-type had that effect. I put the fixed version up there in the same place: http://www.gargantus.com/sylvie/list.html Thanks for the help!
