Ooooooo I see! Thanks Andy / Martin!
Hmm any ideas in tweaking Dreamweaver to work with standards?
As for open target in new window, if I want a new window, how can I achieve it with strict?
I guess is preferences really although I do notice lots of website do not open up in new window but I will always open those links up in new windows as I prefer to have the original page there to refer back to. So to open links up in new windows or not is still a question to me cause I prefer new window. But I will try to please the majority :)
With Regards,
Jaime Wong

No Worries. They are all pretty simple, and pretty minor.

There is no language attribute in XHTML strict, so you should remove
the language="_javascript_" bit

Again, there is no name attribute, use id instead

Get rid of border="0" and set this in your css

No target attribute. Get rid of this (opening up new windows is
annoying anyway)

no hspace attribute. With XHTML strict you should really be aiming to
move all presentational html into your css, so trash this as well.
