Validation Issues

[Harkster]

I have been working on getting Facing to validate. I have 24 issues remaining; all in the header file. I can't seem to locate the source to attempt fixes. Seems to be something related to a js file.

#
# <script type='text/javascript' >
# $(document).ready(function() {
# var limit = 200;
# $('textarea').each(function(intIndex) {
# TextAreaCounter(intIndex,limit);
# });
# });
#
# function TextAreaCounter(t_no,limit) {
#
# var t_area = $('textarea')[t_no];
# $('</span></div><div style=\'margin-top:0px;padding-top:0px;\'><label>&nbsp;</label><span><input type=\'text\' id=\'counter'+t_no+'\' value=\''+limit+' Left\' style=\'width:60px;\' readonly></span></div>').insertAfter(t_area);
#
# $(t_area).bind('keyup',function () {
# var count = $(t_area).val().length;
# if(count >= limit)
# {
# $(t_area).val($(t_area).val().substr(0,limit));
# count = limit;
# }
# $('input#counter'+t_no+'').val(limit-count+' Left');
# });
# }
# </script>

All the errors reference this

$('</span></div><div style=\'margin-top:0px;padding-top:0px;\'><label>&nbsp;</label><span><input type=\'text\' id=\'counter'+t_no+'\' value=\''+limit+' Left\' style=\'width:60px;\' readonly></span></div>').insertAfter(t_area);

Is there a simpler/cleaner one to build from? My goal is to build clean and simple, lightweight (minimal graphics) theme(s) to my tastes.

All of the templates use javascript as part of them in order to perform some functions. Although I've never had to edit the javascript files to achieve w3 compliance.

Do you have a URL I can look at?

I don't think my changes are cause but... May try upload unmodified tomorrow to check. Quality Blog Index
Is where I left off. It seems to be mostly closing unopened tags.

Also a testing link at www.usxx.net

It appears as if that's coming from the textarea counter. Does the page validate if you disable the textarea counter plugin?

[Harkster]

BINGO! Shucks as that is a cool feature.

FYI, I had to make several changes to the header file. Several of the link statements ended with > instead of /> and a missing </a> in the footer file (which I had not touched).

Looks like the villain is line 82 in char_counter.php. Looks like that thing displays the remaining characters.

I'll talk to Irkham about the template. Glad you found where the culprit is coming from.
