I keep trying to validate my pages in XTHML 1.0 Trans, and my forms are throwing errors. <br />
<br />
It says the form object cannot exist there, or rules do not allow the form to be there.<br />
<br />
the same is occurring for my h5's. may hap I am just not hip on html 4.0+rules and these elements cannot exist in spans?<br />
<br />
