QuoteError Line 159, column 388: an attribute specification must start with a name or name token .
...;day=7" target="_self">7</a></td><td "><a class="smalltext" style="color: ste
An attribute name (and some attribute values) must start with one of a restricted set of characters. This error usually indicates that you have failed to add a closing quotation mark on a previous attribute value (so the attribute value looks like the start of a new attribute) or have used an attribute that is not defined (usually a typo in a common attribute name).

âÅ"‰

Error Line 168, column 540: end tag for "br" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified .
...dex="2" /><label for="hideEmail">
<input type="checkbox" name="hideEmail"
You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".

Error Line 198, column 48: document type does not allow element "head" here .
         <div style="padding:0px; " id="block42"><head>
The element named above was found in a context where it is not allowed. This could mean that you have incorrectly nested elements -- such as a "style" element in the "body" section instead of inside "head" -- or two elements that overlap (which is not allowed).

One common cause for this error is the use of XHTML syntax in HTML documents. Due to HTML's rules of implicitly closed elements, this error can create cascading effects. For instance, using XHTML's "self-closing" tags for "meta" and "link" in the "head" section of a HTML document may cause the parser to infer the end of the "head" section and the beginning of the "body" section (where "link" and "meta" are not allowed; hence the reported error).

âÅ"‰

Error Line 607, column 21: end tag for element "a" which is not open .
                                        Bloc</a>
The Validator found an end tag for the above element, but that element is not currently open. This is often caused by a leftover end tag from an element that was removed during editing, or by an implicitly closed element (if you have an error related to an element being used where it is not allowed, this is almost certainly the case). In the latter case this error will disappear as soon as you fix the original problem.

If this error occured in a script section of your document, you should probably read this FAQ entry.

right down to last 2 now and completely stumped
