The W3C validator will, AFAIK, reject everything (apart from comments) *unless* you have a !DOCTYPE tag at the start to tell it what kind of document it's supposed to be validating. This !DOCTYPE is the one I usually use, HTML 4.0: -- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> -- The !DOCTYPE tag should go *before* the HTML tag.
