Some will advice that validation is not important. And they're right - if accessibility is not important. (if it won't validate it probably won't render - and hence limit the audience). > > i'll send a note to the problem website support > desk and see if any thing will happen.

You might also try spoofing a different user-agent to see if the site renders properly then. e.g.:- Chris Pederick's "User Agent Switcher" Firefox/Iceweasel extension. Note that HTML5 has only very recently become a standard, and that many websites that use "HTML5" don't conform with that standard. Perhaps if you posted the relevant URL we could offer more useful advice. Apologies if this advice has been repeated elswhere by those who "can't be bothered/don't know how to" *not* break threads (sigh) I caught "GoLinux's" post but may have missed others. > > > songbird > > Kind regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
