This problem is going to be extremely difficult to diagnose and fix. One, most experienced HTML coders code directly, so telling you what to do in Dreamweaver isn't really possible. I can tell you...

The best advice for fixing validation errors is to read/understand the errors reported by the validator, and fix them. That's what the validator is for. If you don't understand the error messages,...

I realize he doesn't know any server-side languages. However, that doesn't mean the task can be done client-side. Certain things can only be done server-side, and form processing and re-mailing is...

Are the images in the same folder as the HTML? You need to provide a path to the images. Please research relative paths, absolute paths, and the base href property.

Agreed. In any discussion about CSS and HTML, the very first question to ask is, "What DOCTYPE are you declaring?".

You'll find I agree with you. You're right, "center" isn't in some of the newer standards. But with HTML, one standard doesn't necessarily supersede an older standard. You can code any HTML standard...

It isn't a matter of "changing minds". It's simply a matter of which HTML version, meaning schema, indicated by DOCYTPE, you are using.

The "center" tag is perfectly valid, in certain versions of...

The CSS for print media is not well supported. Personally, I think that's fine. If I want to print landscape, I will. In any case, I don't think there is a solution at this point in time. Have you...

In HTML? No. JavaScript is a web-client language, so has no access to the DOS console. I think you're in the wrong forum... and frankly, I have no idea what forum your request would go in.
