"ERROR ON PAGE"
Hi,
I'm building a Web Page and when I open it in IEX I get "ERROR ON PAGE" message on the Taskbar. Otherwise it works fine. Anybody know what it's trying to tell me? Wondering, riley [This message has been edited by riley (edited 09 March 2001).] |

Like a sort of yellow icon beside it too?
This means that there is a slight error in your HTML code. Double click the yellow icon and a pop-up window will appear telling you which line in your HTML doc contains the error. ------------------ Nutzboard Nutzmod |

riley,
Can you possibly give us a link to your page/site so we can help you with the error ? When building a website using proper HTML as opposed to some of the freewebsite design tools it is a good idea to bookmark the following link which will take you to an HTML validator. This essentially analyses your page for HTML errors (and can help you pinpoint them easily) and also helps to create a very browser compatible webpage.

Hi,
Thanks for replies. I have Validator"lite". Guess I should get the "heavy' version because it doesn't report any errors. I have just begun this page so it is basically a shell. http://users.greenbaynet.com/~riley/ It may be in the script.(it works though!)If you see something let me know.(Maybe I should simply start anew (it's a very simple page so far) Thanks and enjoy! riley [This message has been edited by riley (edited 10 March 2001).] |

MiShY,
Guess I'm not too swift. I "assumed" the Validator that you pointed me to was the program that I have! I finally opened the link and it has a bunch of suggestions for me. So i guess I'll get to work on the errors.(Just wanted to let you know my error on this page.) I'll let you know... riley |

Riley,
I'm going to move this topic over to the Website & Graphics forum on this site as it's a little better suited there. To get there Click Here MiShY |

Hi riley! I took a gander at your site and checked the code. From what I saw I can tell you of two specific errors right off that I saw just by glancing at it.
#1) the paragraph tag <p> should be closed </P> whenever it is used. I know it's not necessary but strict HTML4 asks that it be closed. #2) the <layer> tag is not understood by Internet Explorer. It's a Netscape only tag and was depricated in Netscape 6. If you wish to use layers change the <layer> tags to <div> tags. Again these were just a couple of things I saw at a glance, but hopefully will help you see the errors a bit clearer. ------------------ Buzz Moderator : : Macintosh : : Website & Graphics Workshop [This message has been edited by Buzz (edited 12 March 2001).] |
