Hi,

I don't use FB, sorry I point out an error and expect it to be fixed.

Cheers

Last time I looked the tinyMCE text editor was giving my sites errors by using the depracated <center> tag

well, if you report an error please tell us the context when the error occurs

is it in a theme, in admin area or where?

Best would be a link to your page

but the way you report an error and "expect it to be fixed" is just a little less for fixing and too much for expecting ;=)

please note that it is a good custom to say hello and not just order some fixes !

validate against what ? You provide no pages or output.

Validation is for standards practicality, its not a necessity.

You cannot expect an application that is based on 3rd party plugins and themes to validate.
If you are truly concerned with validation then to validate then you should fix them yourselves.
