Description and Message
Hello everyone! I have just installed phpBB 3.0.4 and board3 Portal 1.0.2. For some reason, my portal is not Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict. The results of my W3C validation test are at http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... or%2F1.606. What files and code do I have to edit in order for my portal to be Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict? Thank you so much! :D

Check again the install.xml
It looks like there is something wrong - eg. the left and right columns don't have any space to the left and the right.
Normally it should look like this: portal.php?style=1 - the portal itself shouldn't be wider than the header.
So i guess that somethings gone wrong during the file edits or you've changed something else in the templates.
Also purge your board cache and refresh your templates.

You are correct. After looking over the file edits, I added

Code: Select all

<!-- ENDIF -->
after

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-logout"><a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" title="{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" accesskey="l">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></li>
instead of after

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-logout"><a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" title="{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" accesskey="l">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></li>
				<!-- ENDIF -->
			</ul>

			<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span></div>
		</div>
What happened was when I was going to search for it, I copied and pasted

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-logout"><a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" title="{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" accesskey="l">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></li>
				<!-- ENDIF -->
			</ul>

			<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span></div>
		</div>
into a single-line text box, which caused it to only paste

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-logout"><a href="{U_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" title="{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}" accesskey="l">{L_LOGIN_LOGOUT}</a></li>
Thank you for your help!
