While the page http://www.xumbrus.com/order.htm validates with TIDY in=20
HTML-Kit, it does NOT validate with using the WC3 validation service. What=
=20
gives? I don't SEE a problem. (BTW, if I remove the closings from the=20
metatags (" /> changed to ">) - it still says there are the same errors and=
=20
still says <body> is not allowed after </head>.
