Re: Please would a Pro run my site through validator

Andys issues only relate to Flash. That may imply he is a reasonable
code writer and has no need to waste anymore time trying to make the
page/s validate 100%.

Plus as you know those peoples pages that contain oodles of errors will
have no understanding of the validators results, therefore they are not
able to put the issues right themselves and would still require help
from someone more experienced, until such time as they didn't require
help, at which point validation will be meaningless.

Learn html and css, then you can make a decision about if the faults
relating to the page are serious or not. There is no other way. Telling
a novice developer to make their page validate, or near validate, before
you're prepared to help them is pointless.

The primary reason we ask most people here who post pages with layout
problems whether their pages validate is that if a page contains oodles
of validation errors, it's nearly impossible to hone in on that one
particular one that is causing the layout issue (see, browsers are very
forgiving about valid/invalid code and come about as close as you can
get to 'do what I mean, not what I say). Dreamweaver is not forgiving
at all, nor should it be.
