To work as intended, your CSS style sheet needs a correct document parse tree. This means you should
use valid HTML.
Errors
URI : file://localhost/C:\Documents and Settings\MMOORE\Desktop\family\web\test2.htm
Line: 0
Parse error - Unrecognized : <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head> <title>The Layout Test</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <style type="text/css" media="all"> <!-- body { margin: 0; padding: 0;
background: #FFF; color: #000; }
I have just a basic code -- and wanted to see if I had the correct layout to see what the
validation would give me and wham...an error. Not sure what this means though. Any help...please.
The code that I have looks like the folling.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>The Layout Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<style type="text/css" media="all">
<!--
body {
margin: 0; padding: 0;
background: #FFF; color: #000;
}
#header {
position: absolute;
top: 0px; left: 0px;
width: 100%; height: 100px;
margin: 0px; padding: 0px;
background: #07F; color: #000;
z-index: 0;
}
#menu {
position: absolute;
top: 100px; left: 0px;
width: 100%; height: 20px;
margin: 0px; padding: 0px;
background: #FFC; color: #000;
z-index: 0;
}
#holder {
position: absolute;
top: 120px; left: 0px;
width: 100%; height: auto;
margin: 0px; padding: 0px;
background: #07F; color: #000;
z-index: 0;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="menu"></div>
<div id="holder"></div>
</body>
</html>
This file looks good to me...Don't know where I made the mistake?
Thank you in advance for your help. =)
