The basic principle of dealing with errors like this is that if you can't see what anything else means, just clear the *1st* problem. I think you have space characters before the <? that starts everything off. So remove them, and see what happens.

The basic set-up of an HTML 5 page looks like this (created with a single keystroke in BBEdit (Mac only))
CODE
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>


I'm not sure why a xmlns attribute is used on the html element.
Post the url to your page, so we can a better and further look.

I get a lot of errors, but not the ones you ask about. Is that maybe for a sub page rather than the one you linked to? Did you use the w3c validator or something else?

https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=https%3A%2...;showsource=yes

Also, in the future please start a new thread for your question. This thread is 6 years old and it's easier to find stuff it there is a dedicated thread for each issue. smile.gif
