Hi, Guys!!

I use Markup Validation Service to run a test to my wordpress websites and I found..
155 Errors, 19 warning(s)

This are the data of the site
Server: Apache mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635
Size: 9603
Content-Type: text/html
Encoding: utf-8
Doctype: HTML5
Root Element: html

Now what I need to know is where exactly to go to fix the errors..For instance here is one..
===============================================================================
HTML5 Validator Error

Syntax of link type valid for <link>:
A whitespace-separated list of link types listed as allowed on <link> in the HTML specification or listed as an allowed on <link> on the Microformats wiki without duplicate keywords in the list. You can register link types on the Microformats wiki yourself.

===================================================================================

I do not know where to go to fix this....

Also they gave me the source listing and they show me the Cleaned-up Source Listing with "HTML-Tidy" but I do not know where to find this in my WP blog to place the new source listing..

=====================================================================================

ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();
</script> cont.....
=====================================================================================

Search for Remove rel=EditURI and rel=wlwmanifest links on search engine.
From what I read that's needed only if you plan to write to Wordpress with windows Live Writer. If you don't need it you can remove it.

You get the error because for W3C there are only these rel values:

The errors are always the same, that page is using rel values not registered. Check the link I gave you. Is not difficult to solve, just search why you are receiving those errors. On html5 you have to use target="new" an not target="_new" . If you read the errors you get a solution.

Warning Line 8, Column 10297: The border attribute is obsolete. Consider specifying img { border: 0; } in CSS instead.

The above, for example, is self-explanatory.

Hi, Cereal!!

I know you are a busy person but i really need to solve this..
As I told you I'm not techy so I need to understand exactly where to go to solve those errors....Please give me a file name where I can find them..

Also remember I told you that they gave me the source listing and they show me the Cleaned-up Source Listing with "HTML-Tidy" but I do not know where to find this in my WP blog to place the new source listing..

Thanks in advance
