Hi again,<br />
<br />
I have checked my site through W3C's HTML validator and it stood the test. I now would like to add the image that they give, to my site so that people can click on it and the browser will take them to the page that says the script is legitimant.<br />
<br />
I have copy/pasted the script that they gave; however, it only takes the viewer to the page for entering a URI. But I want it to take them to the results without any hassle.<br />
<br />
Comments?<br />
<br />
Thanks, Gandalf<br />

<br />
I went to the validation page: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://validator.w3.org">http://validator.w3.org</a><!-- m --> and from that they only usable code I could see was, <br />

I added this to my page, saved it, and tried out this link by clicking on it. Well, it took me to This page:http://validator.w3.org/check?uri= <br />
<br />
What am I doing wrong here?<br />

<!--content-->As stated earlier, further down the W3C "This page is Valid HTML" page, there is another link URL given that you can paste into your code. That code will do what you want.<br />
<br />
The /check/referrer code used to work, but a few months ago W3C re-wrote the validator progam, and at that time, all of the links in the old style stopped functioning.<!--content-->I understand what you are saying, but there are no other URL's on that page.<br />
<br />
Mind copy/pasting it for me? Maybe we're on two different pages.<br />
<br />

<!--content-->At the results page, look down. It's there.<br />
I'm talking about the page that says This Page Is Valid HTML 4.0!<!--content-->If your page "tentatively validates as HTML" then you maybe won't see the link.<br />
<br />
Once you add a !DOCTYPE and a Character set declaration to your page, then you should see the link on that W3C results page, like on this one: [link (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.inkreations.com%2F&doctype=HTML+4.01+Transitional&charset=iso-8859-1+%28Western+Europe%29&ss=1&outline=1&sp=1">http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... ine=1&sp=1</a><!-- m -->)] or this one: [link (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rnotley.freeserve.co.uk%2Fproject%2Fmain.html">http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ...

<!--content-->oops. screenshot didnt upload<!--content-->Ah, you uploaded the file! There is no way the validator can tell you the URL, as you haven't got it to scan a live web site. The URL it gives only happens when you enter the URL that you want validated, not when you upload a file to the validator. Anyway the two links I supplied above, show you the format to use; or you can get it for your page, by getting the validator to scan your site, instead of you uploading the pages to it.<!--content-->Cool! Thank you!!<br />
<br />
Gandalf<br />
<!--content-->Ah, that makes sense. I was wondering why you couldn't find the URL. <!--content-->
