validation prblems

Hi, I have a test site with WordPress running here:
https://murphyzone.no-ip.com/gccbfm/news/blog/
When I try to validate it, it tells me I have some list tag issues.
I have looked at the source code and can’t quite find where the issue is, as far as I can see I have closed all the tags. I put the source code into Dreamweaver and it pointed out two hanging '

'

tags. When I alter index.php though, I can’t see the tags are hanging and when I remove the tags I believe to be the culprits, I end up with the styles getting messed up. I also have an issue with the very top list link and the very bottom list link not displaying the a:link or a:visited bullet image, but the a:hover does display.
Anysugestions as to what the culprit may be? I have been at this one for too long now…
Here is the code where its messing up:

'<div id="rightCol">
<div id="blogMenu">

• <?php _e('Categories:'); ?>

• <?php wp_list_cats(); ?>

• <?php _e('Member Login:'); ?>

• /wp-login.php"><?php _e('Login'); ?>
• /wp-register.php"><?php _e('Register'); ?>

• <label for="s"><?php _e('Search the Caucus Blog:'); ?></label>
  <form id="searchform" method="get" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>">
  <input type="text" name="s" id="s" size="15" />
  <input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e('Search'); ?>" />
  </form>

<li id="archives"><?php _e('Archives:'); ?>

• <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>

<li id="calendar"><?php get_calendar(); ?>

<?php get_links_list(); ?>
<li id="meta"><?php _e('Meta:'); ?>

• " title="<?php _e('Syndicate this site using RSS'); ?>"><?php _e('RSS 2.0'); ?>
• " title="<?php _e('The latest comments to all posts in RSS'); ?>"><?php _e('Comments RSS 2.0'); ?>
• "><?php _e('Valid XHTML'); ?>
• ">WP

</div>
</div>'

Thanks
