Geocities uses a javascript for their ads. If you have some other sort
of javascript in the <head>, it will cause this error, along with an
error of a misplaced <html> tag (at least this is what I've ran
across).

If you move the javascript out of the <head> and place it in the body
of the document, the error goes away.
