Us geezers, on the other hand, worry about it, because even when it's harmless the noise obscures real errors. In the case of the welcome app, there's a real error: <!--[if IE]> <!-- Always force latest IE rendering engine (even in intranet) & Chrome Frame Remove this if you use the .htaccess --> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"> <![endif]--> HTML comments do not nest. The effect of the code above (which the w3 validator objects to) is that *all* browsers see the meta element (and the endif, for that matter) that are intended only for IE. It should be: <!-- Always force latest IE rendering engine (even in intranet) & Chrome Frame Remove this if you use the .htaccess --> <!--[if IE]> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"> <![endif]--> ...though I don't really understand the "if you use the .htaccess" comment. The validator also objects to this, because there's no 'copyright' name defined for meta: <meta name="copyright" content="Copyright 2011" /> Notice that even if a copyright name were defined, this one is meaningless, since it neglects to tell us who owns the copyright.
