    First error...change your first few lines to the following:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

    That will also take care of error two. The third error speaks for itself...take out that attribute v:shape to fix it. You have to use XHTML strict and that is not a strict attribute, also on Error 5 take the </p> out and replace that with <p /> if you read over the w3c standards you would find out that the <br></br> <p></p> isn't considered XHTML strict...you have to use those particular tags like this <p /> or <br /> instead.

    Hi Lisa,
    Thanks for replying to me. I have managed to get my faults down now to just 1. I hope i haven't messed everything up as when i change the doctype to strict it brings up more faults. Also my web server is saying on the meta tag analysis that i have no title tag. I have 1 in place but it says i haven't. I will not touch the code now until i get a reply from you so i don't do anything wrong. Hope you can help.
    Many Thanks
    Lee
