XML parsing error (per W3C validator site)

Hi,

When I try to validate this page -

http://www.topfloorstudio.com/index....oorstudio.html

I get two errors and two warnings -

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...idator%2F1.654

Since I'm not a programmer, I'm not sure where the problem lies. Any thoughts? Thanks so much.

Replace the ampersands (&) with this:

Code:

&amp;

Also, I recommend you read this article: http://www.webdevout.net/articles/beware-of-xhtml

Good luck!

Thanks for your reply, but doesn't the javascript that uses the && in question need both of those as they are?

It will work in the same way with the entity. What I recommend though, is to make your JavaScript external.

Excellent - I made an external JS file and it validates. Thank you so much.

Happy coding!
