but you have omitted it. For instance, in most HTML and XHTML document types
the "type" attribute is required on the "script" element and the "alt"
attribute is required for the "img" element.

Typical values for type are type="text/css" for <style> and
type="text/javascript" for <script>.

The attribute given above is required for an element that you've used,

7. Error Line 295 column 136: there is no attribute "BG".

...3" onMouseOver="P7_autoLayers(0)" bg="ffffff"
background="ffffff"></div>

You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the
document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element.
This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with
a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type
to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such
as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired
effect instead).

This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the
document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported
attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further
information.

How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute,
(Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in
the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute.

?
8. Error Line 295 column 156: there is no attribute "BACKGROUND".

You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the

* You forgot to close a tag, or

Thats the link to the W3C page showing errors. You'll need to fix those and
re-validate the page


http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.msad54.org%2Fnorridgewo ck%2Fs
chaeffer%2Fschaeffer.shtm&charset=%28detect+automa tically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1
&outline=1&sp=1&No200=1&verbose=1

Sorry, link doesn't work. Follow SugnaShane's reply. You'll need to rectify the code for your page to validate.

It may have something to do with your file extention it should be "shtml"
not
shtm however here is your errors for validation:

The latter extension works fine.

This is not a validation error - it's a javascript error on line 126 -

<body
onLoad="MM_preloadImages;P7_autoHide('menuone','me nutwo','menu3','menu4','menu5');runClock()"

The runClock() function is not described on that page.
