Q: I had a very good time running my pages through Web Garage, one of the resources listed in the last lesson, but I got some interesting results. I keep getting "Invalid tag:<lh>". I think I am using the tag correctly. Could this validator possibly be looking for a different version of HTML, or else, what am I doing incorrectly with my List Heads?

A: searched all the online sites which usually give me the information about tags and found only one reference to LH as a List Heading. Usually the Compendium of HTML gives the information about which versions of HTML along with versions of browsers that support the tag. http://www.htmlcompendium.org

While it does give information about LH, the usual tests were not performed to get this information and the site stated that it is absent from the HTML 4 standards which I already knew from searching the info at W3C. It was part of the HTML 3.0 draft but was not adopted in W3C HTML 3.2.

It is helpful when you are at the compendium to read all the online instructions. At first I thought the information I I needed was not loading (the site reorganized awhile ago), but then discovered that I had not scrolled down far enough in the left frame to get the list of tags to select. The other site I often go to for information about tags and support for them is Index Dot HTML and there was no mention there.

Q. Finding Errors
A.  Sending each page to check with the Single Page Analysis of Doctor HTML http://www.doctor-html.com/RxHTML/ will often find those little things that are omitted. If you go to your page in Netscape and view the page source, sometimes the code will flash where there is an error or omission.
