The asylum fails to validate because of this little detail:

code:

Yep, it lacks a closing quote.

Actually, you don't
You get a lot of complaints (7) from the w3c validator, which turn out to be 2 missing &amps; and one unsupported attribute'named 'ref', which is necessary to teach search engines to stay out of the Mad Scientists Lab.

And now, all you get is the ref attribute, which thankfully, the validator only honors with one error .

Moral of the lesson: An error and the error message you get when parsing are completly different things. Thankfully, I don't have to work with C++ templates anymore. One typo => 2 pages of error messages

No such thing. It's _rel_.

Also, I get this (not using code because it's too long):
<img class="imgMiddle" src="http://www.ozoneasylum.com/images/layouts/ozoneasylum/backlink.gif" alt="Pages that link to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ozoneasylum.com/backlink?for=28230&quot; title=&quot;Pages that link to Topic: Minor validation detail (Page 1 of 1)&quot; ref=&quot;nofollow&quot; &gt;Topic: Minor validation detail &lt;span class=&quot;small&quot;&gt;(Page 1 of 1)&lt;/span&gt;\" />

Groovy, we're getting close to some spanking well-formedness!

Ok, ref/rel should be fixed - please write up any other suggestions in an easy to use format (ie. What, Why, How)
- I am currently studying for my diploma and won't do any fixes that take too much time.

Minor improvements though

Btw, would anybody be interested in a per forum rss feed?
