    When using http://validator.w3.org/ service to valid must show errors 0 ? I see some errors that do NOT seem for errors are really errors ?

    Can you give us a link to the site that you're trying to validate?

    Which errors are you not able to fix? They're all fixable errors, as far as I can tell.

    In the first link you posted (polis-realestate.eu), a lot of the errors are because of your JavaScript. Many more are because you didn't encode your ampersands. A few are because you're using uppercase in the XHTML Tags.

    I think you should review the W3C's Common HTML Validation Problems page.

    All of the XML Parsing errors are because you haven't ended some tags propertly so it throws off all the tags after it.

    Overall, though, is there a reason you're using XHTML Transitional? From what I can tell, you're not using XHTML at all. You're using HTML only. Considering that you're not using XHTML and that it isn't supported in IE browsers, you should really switch to a HTML Doctype -- even if it's HTML Transitional (though Strict is always preferred, and there is no reason why you can't make that page strict. It's not using any elements that aren't permitted under the Strict DTD).

    HTML 4.01 Strict
    Code:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
                "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
    HTML 4.01 Transitional
    Code:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
                "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

    Have you tried cleaning up your HTML with HTMLTidy?
