I did what you've suggested and I want my page to show like that..cos it used to be like that. However, it used to validate Xhtml strict 1.0... now it's just transitional. I really wanted the page to validate as strict 1.0 because that was how it used to be... before the hosting fixed some bugs and character encodings. How can I make strict?
Sorry I'm being persistent. Thank you.
You still have one HTML error on line 56 for the ending comment.
http://www.htmlhelp.com/cgi-bin/validate.c...s&input=yes
That's because of the CSS error on line 26.
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validat....com/%7Eskylark
Put the CDATA, coded as Darin told you to, at the beginning of your CSS. Take Darin's exemple of ccoding for javascript, the same goes for CSS.
BTW, you have two BODY declarations in your CSS. And, you need to start your CSS declarations with the @import.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cascade.html#at-import.

So I need to remove one ccs and another code ccs? I did put the CDATA already..not sure if it's in correct place.
And where do I need to put this-- > <script src="filename.js" type="text/javascript"></script>. What do I need to do about ccs declaration. I want to have my page validate xhtml strict 1.0
Looking for help again. Thanks for being patient.

This is just some part of my my code. (on another layout that I've tried) Did I put everything to where they should be? I validated the page using part of this code and I get valid Transitional.. but I wanted Xhtml strict.

Thanks to whoever's going to respond and help once more.
In the page at the url you posted, I see:
<style type="text/css">
/*some CSS declarations*/
[CDATA[
@import...
/*more CSS declarations*/
/*]]>*/
</style>
Obviously, the CDATA is wrongly coded and in the wrong place here.
The code snippit you posted above, seems ok to me.
Just try to validate the page that contains that code, in both the HTML and CSS validators.
Read around the HTML reference and CSS reference on this site (links to both on this page), to get a clear understanding.
