 |

Way off topic, but here it goes...
Validator says:
***
1. Warning Line 126 column 130: character "<" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data.
...ocument.write(Combine() + "'\>e-post\<\/a>");</script></p>
***
...where the sequence "post\<" is what puts up the warning flag. AFAIK I have the code escaped, but what's up with the warning? Validator bug? My fault? Is there another escaping technique?
Here's the actual code:
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(Combine() + "'\>e-post\<\/a>");
</script>
Thanks.

The way to get around this is to add CDATA tags inside the script tags
so your code above would look like the following:
| Code: | <script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
document.write(Combine() + "'\>e-post\<\/a>");
//]]>
</script> |
this is just one way!
