This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Pasting the source of the results page of the XHTML validator into the validator itself shows several violations of XHTML 1.0 including: <img alt="W3C" id="logo" src="SearchResultsCheck_files/w3c_home_nb.png" height="48"> The img tag is not closed. The output of the validator should itself be valid.
Hello Ryan, I cannot reproduce the problem you report. Could you give more info on: - what instance of the validator you were using (e.g, was it the one at validator.w3.org or elsewhere? The code you pasted suggests "elsewhere") - what page you were validating that gave you the invalid results page (if possible) I suspect you were using a "customized" installation of the validator, and that the person who edited the templates for the validator broke its markup. We'd need more details to figure out whether that is the case, or something else I can't put my finger on yet. thank you.

Oliver, Thanks for your quick reply! I am using the 'official' validator: Upon further investigation, it appears as though Firefox is introducing invalid closing tags when using 'Save page as', 'Web page complete'. I suppose this issue should be opened under Firefox instead. Thanks again and I apologize for the false alarm.
