On my
Main Forum Page, when I
Check it through
http://validator.w3.org it comes back with
Result: Failed validation, 1 error

Below are the results of checking this document for XML well-formedness and validity.
1. Error Line 536, column 7: end tag for "table" which is not finished .
</table>
Most likely, You nested tags and closed them in the wrong order. For example <p><em>...</p> is not acceptable, as <em> must be closed before <p>. Acceptable nesting is: <p><em>...</em></p>
Another possibility is that you used an element which requires a child element that you did not include. Hence the parent element is "not finished", not complete. For instance, <head> generally requires a <title>, lists (ul, ol, dl) require list items (li, or dt, dd), and so on.
However, not being a coder I'm having a hard
time figuring out what's causing that error? vBulletin, a MOD I've installed, my Style Sheets, etc. So I'm posting some info here in hopes someone can give me a hand and tell me where or how to figure out what the problem is. Any guidence would be much appreciated.
The section of code just above where the error occurs and is alright itself is:
Code:
# <!-- what's going on box -->
# <!-- Categoty Top -->
# <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" align="center">
# <tr>
# <td width="21" height="31" align="left" valign="top" style="background-image: url(http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_bg.gif)"><img border="0" src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_left.gif" width="21" height="31" alt="" /></td>
# <td height="31" width="60%" align="left" valign="middle" style="background-image: url(http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_bg.gif)"><div class="category_title"><b>What's Going On?</b></div></td>
# <td width="19" align="left" valign="middle"><img src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_end.gif" alt="" width="19" height="31" border="0" /></td>
# <td align="right" valign="top" style="background-image: url(http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_center.gif)"><img src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_center.gif" alt="" /></td>
# <td width="14" height="31" align="right" valign="top"><img border="0" src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/top_right.gif" width="14" height="31" alt="" /></td>
# </tr>
# </table>
While the
error itself is in this section of code...
(Specifically, it tells me "
Line 536, column 7: end tag for "table" which is not finished")
Code:
# <!-- /Categoty Top -->
#
#
# <table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
#
#
#
#
#
#
#
#
#
# </table>
# <!-- Categoty Bottom -->
And lastly, the next section of code that is alright is
Code:
# <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
# <tr>
# <td width="12" align="left" valign="top"><img src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/blc.gif" width="12" height="13" alt="" border="0" /></td>
# <td width="100%" style="background-image:url(http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/bottom.gif)"><img src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/clear.gif" width="100%" height="13" alt="" border="0" /></td>
# <td width="12" align="right" valign="top"><img src="http://www.recumbentriders.org/forums/images/aria/misc/brc.gif" width="12" height="13" alt="" border="0" /></td>
# </tr>
# </table>
# <!-- /Categoty Bottom -->
#
# <!-- end what's going on box -->
