there is no attribute "height", "background", "hsrc"...


Recommended Posts

I rewrote one of my HTML pages in XHTML and I checked it with W3C’s validation service and I get 5 errors, 4 of which are the same. The 4 say, there is no attribute "background", there is no attribute "height", there is no attribute "hsrc", there is no attribute "onClick", there is no attribute "align". I do not understand what that means?

I know this is a HTML forum help but hopefully someone here knows XHTML!

Thanks. If you need codes ask.
Pretty simple stuff. It means that the element(s) for which you have used the attribute 'height', height is NOT supported by the (x)HTML standard you're using. For example - height is NOT a supported attribute for the table element (despite many editors allowing it!). onClick might well be substituted by onclick (all lower case), and I've never seen hsrc. Etc., etc.

Basically, your code contains non-compliant html.

Couple of hints - html and xhtml are virtually identical. In xhtml always use lower case for attributes, always enclose attribute values with quotes.
Line 309 column 21: there is no attribute "align".
<span align="center">
They recomended useing span to align center the image yet they say its not promited?

hsrc is part of a javascript and it is doing rollovers

what should I do about the hight attribute? I don't think I can delete it. Should I just leave it there?
Remote diagnosis when blindfolded is very difficult :)

Now if we got a look at the code, we could help. Part of the problem might be the DOCTYPE, but the root of the problem's in the code. 'Align' is long deprecated. And yes, xhtml compliant rollovers are possible.
Yeah, not a problem, here's the code.

Yeah, <center></center>. Thats what I always use but the W3C vilation thingy says I can't use it.

But anyways. I'm going to let this go because I'm geting one error after another and infact the page in XHTML doesnt display right. I would have to rewrite the whole thing. So for now I guess I won't be useing XHTML.

Thanks for your help and sorry to waist our time.
