  • I thought wordpress was supposed to be for dummies.

    I don’t think I would agree with that. For many, who want to keep things uncomplicated, WordPress.com is the answer. Your choices of themes are limited but there are many nice blogs there and you don’t have to know so much about html.

    &’s are always a problem but if you use ampersand+amp+; you can fix those. Errors also are cascading so if you fix one, often other go away.

    Your first link is just missing a quote mark ” after spell. The validator usually points out what the problem is.
