Nice and Simple Contact Form by CSS Tricks not validating xh

[micagrafica]

I have been trying to validate my website using w3.org xhtml validator. It seems that the only issues I have left are in regards to a contact form developed by css tricks.

The form http://css-tricks.com/examples/NiceSimpleContactForm2/

works fine but kicks back errors in the validation as seen here

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcss-tricks.com%2Fexamples%2FNiceSimpleContactForm2%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

Any ideas on how to modify it so that it passes?

Thanks for the response Mark. When I removed those 2 elements, it did reduce the number of errors however their was still approx. 7-8 errors left. Your comment did help me identify what elements needed to be updated. After a bit of testing the code I was able to remove all of the xhtml errors. I have included the updated code below:

* Please note that I have little experience with PHP so my modifications may have unforseen consequences. I did test the form after making the changes and it worked in firefox 3. Updated code below to validate in xhtml:

document name: recaptchalib.php

original

Code:

‘;

xhtml validated

Code:

document name: index.php (or whatever page the contact form will be placed)

original

Code:

Name:
Phone:
Email:
Message:

……..

xhtml validated

Code:

form method=”post” action=”contactengine.php”>

Name:
Phone:
Email:
Message:

……..

Hopefully this helps and did not break anything. If you notice something in my updated code that I should change please let me know.

thanks,

Mikal
