- Ahahah it's not possible I passed the code to the w3c validator!
- However, it tells me that some of the tags are not closed, some <td>
- They had to touch the code with their character, I tell you that the w3c says nothing!
Small slice of life of Badsender between me and a certain Marion M. (whose anonymity will be preserved).
Until yesterday I was sure of the tools that have a good reputation. I always check my html code with some tools. But now I have to check the tools that check my code!
I code on Dreamweaver, which when we forget some things, changes the color code. Then once the input is done, I pass it to the w3c validator (https://validator.w3.org/). And finally I test on Emailonacid.
In principle it does it !!!
2 tools out of 3 are gone through. And the main one too: Bibi in front of the screen...
Here is a piece of the code in question:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="fr" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta name="x-apple-disable-message-reformatting" />
<title>Test Badsender</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#eeeeee" style="margin:0px; padding:0px; background-color:#eeeeee;">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:100%; margin:0px auto;" align="center" role="presentation">
<tr>
<td align="center" bgcolor="#eeeeee">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="margin:0px auto;" align="center" role="presentation">
<tr>
<td class="paddingb20px" style="padding:15px 20px 30px;" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><h1 class="fs20px" style="margin:0px; padding:0px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#ff0000; font-size:28px; text-align:center; mso-line-height-rule:exactly; line-height:26px; font-weight:bold;">The td is not closed</h1>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
It is clear that the <td> is not closed behind of </h1>
- The code is not colored on Dream :
Need help?
Reading content isn't everything. The best way is to talk to us.
- No closing message from <td> on w3c validator :
He releases his usual little stream to us.
After several attempts to adjust the Dream validator, several tests of online validators I came across this little beauty: https://jsonformatter.org/html-validator
And then he detects a problem:
I complete the </td> to the right line and revalidate:
Well, what to learn from this experience:
1- Always doubt and the customer is right!
2- Test and check even your most trusted tools in various situations to avoid any inconvenience.
Hence the philosophical conclusion if you want to be sure of yourself:
"If man does not shape his tools, his tools will shape him."

In HTML5, some tags do not need to be closed anymore: li, p, tr, td, th...

Perhaps the W3C script includes this permissiveness?
