W3C validation

    Hello,

    I’ am a starter in the world of WordPress. In my search for a good template I discovered the mantra-template.
    Running a clean template (without any plugins or modification of code) through the W3C-validator I found 5 errors:
    1. Bad value X-UA-Compatible for attribute http-equiv on element meta.
    <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=edge,chrome=1″ />
    2. Element meta is missing required attribute name.
    <meta property=”template” content=”mantra” />
    3. The hgroup element is obsolete. To mark up subheadings, consider either just putting the
    subheading into a p element after the h1-h6 element containing the main heading, or else
    putting the subheading directly within the h1-h6 element containing the main heading, but
    separated from the main heading by punctuation and/or within, for example, a span
    class=”subheading” element with differentiated styling. To group headings and subheadings,
    alternative titles, or taglines, consider using the header or div elements.
    <hgroup>
    4. Bad value category for attribute rel on element a: The string category is not a registered
    keyword or absolute URL.
    …jken in Geen categorie” rel=”category”>Geen categorie </span>
    5. Element link is missing required attribute property.
    …ontent/themes/mantra/style-mobile.css?ver=3.5.2′ type=’text/css’ media=’all’ />

    How can these errors be solved? I have no knowledge of php or html. Maybe this is a update issue???

    Who can help???

    1. is a tag required for compatibility with older Internet Explorer versions; will be removed once IE8 is completely phased out and no longer used.

    2. I remember that was supposed to be fixed; we’ll have a look at it.

    3. will eventually be fixed

    4. this is not caused by the theme, as it looks to be from the menu or a (category?) widget

    5. until WordPress allows better control on the order of en-queueing styles, we have no way to correct this;
