script won't validate

AV1611 · October 7, 2008

Trying to validate a page but get this error: (NOTE: I don't know js)

Error Line 46, Column 120: document type does not allow element "object" here .

…8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2"></object>';

Here is the relevant part of the code - I put a print button on screen but use css to suppress the print screen button

<p class="display_only" style="text-align: center;">
<script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript">

// This Script puts a Print Screen Button on the page

function printit(){
if (window.print) {
    window.print() ;
} else {
    var WebBrowser = '<object id="WebBrowser1" width="0" height="0" classid="CLSID:8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2"></object>';
document.body.insertAdjacentHTML('beforeEnd', WebBrowser);
    WebBrowser1.ExecWB(6, 2);//Use a 1 vs. a 2 for a prompting dialog box    WebBrowser1.outerHTML = ";
}
}
</script>

<script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript">
var NS = (navigator.appName == "Netscape");
var VERSION = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (VERSION > 3) {
    document.write('<form><input type="button" value="Print this Page" name="Print" onClick="printit()"></form>');
}
</script>
</p>

AV1611,

I wrapped <html> tags around your code and it worked without error on IE7 and Firefox 3.0.3;
