Hello all!
I am trying to validate a style sheet and I get the following error. "
Parse error - Unrecognized : <style type="text/css"> <!-- td
{font-family: tahoma; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #cff;}
"
Do any of you know what is invalid in that line? I know that there is
not a back up font family I just don't understand what the parser error
is.  Thanks.
<tip type="xml well formed ness" author="Tim">If you are given the task
of using some one else's code and it has to be xml valid and it is not
valid and it is loaded with nested tables...I know that is a lot of
"ands". One method that I have found that makes it easy to find the one
<tr> without the </tr> or whatever is to start in the "middle" and
remove that table. Assign it a locator, such as A1. Label the table as
A1. Go to the next table and so on. Validate each table as you go. If
the tables are clustered on "nodes" you can name them AA and the next
"node" BB or such. That way you can deconstruct a mess of nested tables
to find the one table that has the invalid tag. The locators make it
easy to put the whole mess back to together.</tip>
