HTML Validation Service Results URI: http://community-2.webtv.net/Pwilliamandx/interesting2/ I was redirected to http://community-2.webtv.net/@HH!3B!58!166F6B3D731C/Pwilliamandx/interesting2/ Last Modified: Fri Nov 30 23:24:07 2001 Server: WebTV/1.0 Content Length: 2230 Detected Character Encoding: unknown Select Character Encoding: Current Doctype: HTML 3.2   Warnings Warning: DOCTYPE Override in effect! Any DOCTYPE Declaration in the document has been supressed and the DOCTYPE for «HTML 3.2» inserted instead. The document will not be Valid until you alter the source file to reflect this new DOCTYPE. Warning: No Character Encoding detected! To assure correct validation, processing, and display, it is important that the character encoding is properly labeled. Further explanations. Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML parser. Please note that you have chosen one or more options that alter the content of the document before validation, or have not provided enough information to accurately validate the document. Even if no errors are reported below, the document will not be valid until you manually make the changes we have performed automatically. Specifically, if you used some of the options that override a property of the document (e.g. the DOCTYPE or Character Encoding), you must make the same change to the source document or the server setup before it can be valid. You will also need to insert an appropriate DOCTYPE Declaration or Character Encoding (the "charset" parameter for the Content-Type HTTP header) if any of those are missing. Line 14, column 3:

RELOAD the page until a "title" appears in the status bar area at the bottom of the screen.
