The <LI> element is a singleton tag, so maybe you have a closing end tag
</LI> at the end? You may also have the list tag in the wrong place.
<LI> is legal *within* the following tags:
<DIR>
<MENU>
<OL>
<UL>

The above error is almost always due to the <FONT> tag being in the
wrong place, for example: <LI> is not legal within the <FONT> tag.

inside your script tag, include  type="text/javascript"

If you would like to send your errors to me privately, feel free to do
so and I'll see if I can help you correct them. Or, post them to the
list, as long as they're not too many of them. If so, post them in
increment mailings.
