webbuilders 16 Apr, 2010
HI i want to validate my site bu i have 12 errors and all are from chrono form can you please help me to validate the site ??

Above i have posted the first error ....Can i have some help on that ??

# Warning  Line 222, Column 207: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "task"

…ce/index.php?option=com_chronocontact&task=send&chronoformname=quick&Itemid=1"…

An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs".

Entity references start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). If you want to use a literal ampersand in your document you must encode it as "&" (even inside URLs!). Be careful to end entity references with a semicolon or your entity reference may get interpreted in connection with the following text. Also keep in mind that named entity references are case-sensitive; &Aelig; and æ are different characters.

If this error appears in some markup generated by PHP's session handling code, this article has explanations and solutions to your problem.

Note that in most documents, errors related to entity references will trigger up to 5 separate messages from the Validator. Usually these will all disappear when the original problem is fixed.

Hi webbuilders,

The answer to this is posted here several times - most recently a couple of days ago.

Hi

Yes you claimed to have resolved this issue, however if you do as suggested the the verification "You have entered an incorrect verification code at the bottom of the form." does not appear any more?

Oh and another thing, without changing it and pressing submit it then outputs more errors in the coding.

May just be me but can anyone verify they have the same issues...
