Embarassing… can't find open div

  • I burned the midnight oil making quite a few design/code changes at https://hypervocal.com and now I can barely see straight.

    I can’t for the life of me figure out why the footer section is showing white sections on the left and right rather than having the gray extend over to the edges.

    Can a fresh set of eyes have a look? I know I’m just missing something simple.

    I really appreciate it.

    Thanks WPyogi. I actually tried that same validation tool and some of the reported errors seemed to be showing false issues.

    For instance:

    Line 159, Column 16: Unclosed element ul.
    <ul id=”topnav”>
    but the element is actually closed in the code.

    What that says is that there is no closing tag — so obviously the closing tag is not going to be on the same line — for something like a list — it’s at the end of the list — and sure enough, you do not have a tag at the end of that nav bar list.

    Some of those errors look like you have MAJOR coding problems– like more than one body section? Maybe multiple head sections too?

    I often find it easier to copy the html code into a text editor so there are line number and so you can see the color-coded and/or highlighted html…helps to find missing tags, etc.

    But once you find the errors, you have to go back and figure out where they need to be in the php code…
