[a href=\"http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fmo.dotgeek.org%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline\" target=\"_blank\"]click here[/a]. can anyone help me clear them up?

Thanks Again, Mofish

[code]
<td width='70%'><a href='index.php?page=viewgallery&amp;category=$category'><b>$category Gallery</b> - Click Here To View</a></td>

<td width='30%' class='right-align'><a href='index.php?page=viewgallery&amp;category=$category'><img src='gallery/tn_$image' /></a></td>

[code]<div class='random-image'><a HREF='index.php?page=viewgallery&category=Random'><img src='gallery/tn_mr_bean1.jpg' /></a></div> [/code]

Change to:
[code]<div class='random-image'><a href='index.php?page=viewgallery&amp;category=Random'><img src='gallery/tn_mr_bean1.jpg' /></a></div> [/code]

That should clear all your errors.

To fix a couple of them, HREF should be replaced by href, and & should be replaced by &amp;

EDIT: Beaten, anyway, you need to put alt="something" in your img tag

Are you viewing it through the source code? this is the code im trying to play around with. I have href in small, and am using &amp;

[code]

echo"<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0'>
<tr>

<td width='70%'><a href='index.php?page=viewgallery&amp;category=$category'><b>$category Gallery</b> - Click Here To View</a></td>
                                        
<td width='30%' class='right-align'><a href='index.php?page=viewgallery&amp;category=$category'><img src='gallery/tn_$image' /></a></td>

</tr>";

[/code]

The link you gave to the validator output (as well as the online code itself) are both the same. They use HREF (incorrect) and should be href, they have an image alt tag missing, and they pass a parameter in the link using & which needs to be &amp; which is what causes all the errors on line 73.

If you fix those online and revalidate there should not be any errors.

Are you [b]sure [/b]you're looking at the same source that is being validated?

There are no lines in the source being validated that look like the ones you posted.

i was looking at the wrong line ;) shhh! dont say a word! i feel stupid enough! down to one error now

Error Line 73, column 126: required attribute "alt" not specified .

<img src='gallery/tn_mr_bean1.jpg' /></a></div>

[kenrbnsn]

So add the alt attribute in.
[code]<img src='gallery/tn_mr_bean1.jpg' alt='some discriptive phrase' /></a></div>[/code]
