Sep 01.2006

Hi
I am trying to get my website to validate, but I am having trouble with it because there are two things which usually I dont use so do not know how to validate – these are swf files (embeds etc) and the google adsense code I have inserted.

The results of the current validation assessment can be viewd [URL=http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.unofficiallyfleet.com]here[/URL], and the website [URL=http://www.unofficiallyfleet.com]here[/URL].

Thanks for you help.

@KorSep 01.2006 — I don't know how to pass a flash code throught the validador. But for the rest of the errors, it is easy. You have closed the input tags, which in HTML 4 is an error. Remove the end tags </input>

@KorSep 01.2006 — You will have no luck, nomatter you will do. If your code would not have been nested in a NOSCRIPT tag, you could have used a SWFObject, a javascript code which would have generate the Flash codes, so that it wopuld have passed the validator.

But you have Flash codes there.... So I don't know what you could do...

@ANHauthorSep 01.2006 — Thats what you think...! I found some code after a quick google search... take a look...!

[CODE]
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="filename.swf"
width="200" height="200"
id="id">
<param name="movie" value="filename.swf">
<p>You need the Flash plugin.</p>
<p<a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer/">Download Macromedia Flash Player</a></p>
</object>
[/CODE]

And it validates! Get in!

@KorSep 01.2006 — yes, it is a validate method, but from the Flash point of view it is not. You may have problems in Safari or even in Opera. And I doubt your movie will start.

@ANHauthorSep 01.2006 — They start fine, but its true I have only tested it in IE and FF.

I will download these Opera, but I have Windows so could someone please look at in Safari and tell me what happens it would be much appreciated.

Well hm... that guy simply tried to make a flash work within XHTML. He succeded, but that not means it is XHTML [I]valide[/I]. It may work (I mean the browser will run the Flash properly) but it may not pass the W3 validator test.

@sinciliteSep 01.2006 — It's valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional, Strict I'm not so sure about

@KorSep 01.2006 — ok then... Any solution is better than no solution.

One works in Opera, one doesnt!

I will look into... in the mean time if anyone could look in Safari that would be great!
