Re: color, background color

Hello Iris--

I'm not an expert here, but I experienced the same response you did. 
As I recall, you have the choice for whether the validator returns 
warnings or not-you can turn this option off. As well, you still 
ought to have gotten the official 'validation OK', along with the 
privilege of using the =88WRC sticker.

I understood this as Josu=E9 <jmachado(at)mindspring.com> explained, 
"These are warnings, and not really errors."
