W3 Validation found 29 errors. I can’t seem to fix them.

I built a website and ran it through W3 validation and it found 29 errors out of a total of 325 lines of HTML code.
I need an expert who can sit down with me and help me fix these errors. I have gone through the entire list 3 times fixing these errors with no luck. Struggling.

Thanks.

Thanks for the error report, but we also need a link to your source code, if possible. We'd rather not have your whole source code copied here...
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@jackhensyauthorOct 07.2015 — I am not sure how to provide the link for the source code since its written in Notepad++ and I don't have a host yet.

The link is index.html.

Can you open a index.html file? It's in my C drive.

@jackhensyauthorOct 07.2015 — Jedaisoul,

I would be honored to send a member my source code (copy and paste) to their email or whichever format preferred since I'm not sure how to send the link since the website is not launched yet. (I'm still looking for a host.)

I would love to have a web developer look at my code. I have a passion for getting it right and free of errors.

I'm striving for beautifully written code.

    unfortunately for us, it seems that you sadly fell at the first hurdle. :eek:


    [list=1]
  • [*][color=navy]put your index.html file into a zip file[/color]

  • [/list]
    [/quote]

    So let's see if we can pick you up so that you are able advance to step [b]#2[/b]. ?

    Ask yourself the following questions...

    [list=1]
  • [*][color=navy]do you have [i]WinZip[/i] or a similar program on you p.c? [/color]

  • [*][color=navy]do you know where the [i]index.html[/i] file is on you p.c? [/color]

  • [/list]

    If the answer to both of these questions is [b]yes[/b], then use the program

    to zip the file and then go to [b]#2[/b] of the previous instructions.

    If the answers are [b]no[/b] and [b]yes[/b], then acquire a program and use it to

    zip the file and then go to [b]#2[/b] of the previous instructions.

    If the answers are [b]yes[/b] and [b]no[/b], then search for the file until you find

    it, then zip the file and then go to [b]#2[/b] of the previous instructions.

    We will not give up on you just yet. ?

    @jackhensyauthorOct 08.2015 — no and yes

    I just downloaded winzip from winzip.com and placed the index.html in the folder.

    Next, I went to #2 and clicked on "reply to thread" but I do not see the 'Go Advanced" tab

    My "Addiional Options" screen is different than yours. You have the "manage attachments" tab. I do not.

    What am I doing wrong?

    I do not know why the [color=navy][i]"Manage Attachments"[/i][/color] is not available to you. :eek:

    Perhaps new members have limited user options.

    Try sending a "Private message" to one or all of the following moderators...
    [list=1]
  • [*][color=navy]jedaisoul[/color]

  • [*][color=navy]JMRKER[/color]

  • [*][color=navy]NogDog[/color]

  • [*][color=navy]vwphillips[/color]

  • [/list]

    ...who may be able to shed some light on this problem. ?

    Alternatively you could look for reason by posting your concern here...

    I tried three different browsers too.

    If this website does not work properly not sure if I can trust anyone to correct my code. They need to work out the bugs first on this site. Too many hoops to jump through.
