    Error = "required attribute 'FOO' not specified"

    I get the following error:

    "You left off a required attribute of the indicated element. The most
    common such omitted attribute is the ALT attribute of the AREA or
    IMG element; browsers will typically use these to build a menu equivalent
    to your client-side image map if the user has disabled image loading, so
    you'll want to use a meaningful value here"

    Here's the code:

    <script language="JavaS cript"
    </script>src="htt p://www.fantafictio n.com/smartad/action/adImprScripting .asp?GId=56&amp ;TId=1&amp;BSiz e=0"></script>

    What is wrong here?

        Interesting: an entire body (without an end tag) that precedes the <html>
        tag and includes such sequences as

        <center>
        <div align="center">
        <center>

        and

        </tr>
        </center>
        <center>
        </table>
        </center>
        </div>
        </center>

        And yet it displays in full in IE6, Firefox, and (almost, except for a top
        border on the baby picture) in Netscape 4.7. How about that! How to explain
        it?

                More or less, yes.... Most of it is FrontPage, some is hand coded by me, and some is
                hand coded by others (ASP code that is). Looks like a bomb in a HTML factory. ;-)
                And it's taking me forever to clean up each page, but I'm getting there. :-)

                    The wonders of SSI. ;-) Here is the actual code (minus some asp before the <html>.

                    ---Start Code---
                    <!-- #include virtual="header .inc" -->
                    <html>

                    <head>
                    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
                    <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">
                    <meta name="GENERATOR " content="Micros oft FrontPage 6.0">
                    <meta name="ProgId" content="FrontP age.Editor.Docu ment">
                    <title>FantaFic tion - Main Page</title>
                    <style fprolloverstyle >A:hover {color: #000080}
                    </style>
                    </head>

                    <body stylesrc="main. htm">
                    ---End Code---

                    I made it before I found out that the SSI didn't _have_ to go on the top of the page,
                    before everything else. ;-)

                        The "extra chunky" bit is a nice touch.
