That also happens to my opinion of of much that goes on in the world. As long as the "template" is sound, who cares if a couple of people like to break their "validation". Many people would of course respond to this by integrating a fool-proof theme engine that validates code. Waste of time imo. Just let people do as they please.<br /> <br /> One could almost use this example as an allegory of the real world in this new century. And furthermore ..

Thankfully, Mamboforge is not running Mambo ;-) It's running gforge.org which is some sort of Sourceforge clone.

I looked at the source of several pages around the link you provided and I see:

…
</head>

<body>
<style type="text/css">
<!–
a.bar {
font-family: Arial;
}
a.bar:link {
…

Yet they claim at the top that they are xhtml transitional.

I don’t believe that there’s any xhtml (or html) version that allows style blocks in the body. Specially since there’s already a large style block in the head.

This is as far as I looked.
