Let's try this again -
This is your error from The W3C Markup Validation Service

Quote:

A fatal error occurred when attempting to transcode the character encoding of the document. Either we do not support this character encoding ("ansi_x3.110-1983") yet, or you have specified a non-existent character encoding (often a misspelling).
The error was: Encoding not supported.

Change it back to the UNIVERSAL charset=windows-1252

ok got that bit sorted, am bit puzzled as to how it changed as I know that I didnt change it as I copy and pasted,

its just the errors that have to go through now alot are on the target blank for some reason.

or the links tags so will have to go through them all and figure it out.

Thanks Ishkey is appreciated.

The validator by the look of it isnt liking the Target blank, but not sure what else to use?

Neither Notepad or online editors can add comments or change code without human intervention, so something is amiss.
Here is what is there now.

Code:

Your page doesn't even get to the that point when tring to validate it.

You have the same error - there is nothing wrong with "target blank" it is valid code, it's fine, it works, so put that out of your mind.
The problem is in the "charset"
There is no such charset=ansi_x3.110-1983" for web documents.
There is for Camel email program, which is a broken software.

You also have this same problem -
Look at this part = the space is missing.
Your code: and what it should be:

DOCTYPEhtmlPUBLIC - DOCTYPE htmlPUBLIC
htmllang - html lang
metahttp-equiv - meta http-equiv

Try editing the file on your pc and FTP to upload it and then look at your code that is online.
Are you uploading the right file or do you have one on line which is the old and one which is the new that you are editing, if so delete them both and upload the one that works from your pc.
Heck just delete the online file and load up a fresh one that works.

Here are your other pages - ask yourself why aren't they affected?

Thats why am confused Ishkey I know any editor wont change it themselves, but I also know I didn't change them either I copied and pasted, but the main thing is to get it put right and also that you know that all your help is really appreciated.

I do upload a complete new file with the changes in it after taking out the original one. Hate having to many bits in my cpanel and root folder gets to cluttered if to much there.

Its wierd how some pages are validating fine not many but some arent as havent done anything different on any as such, hence why I am confused with it.

charset=ansi_x3.110-1983 <-- I changed that on all pages to the one that you said to change it to yet its now showing as that.
Hence why am so confused.

Also the spacing is there in both notepad, notepad+ and in my online editor in my cpanel

Will get my files up and go through them again and see where I go from there.

Thanks

Angie

ok here is my code have changed it, but spaces are there already I didnt put any in on this edit.

hopefully this is right (last one had charset changed, but is showing to you the wrong charset in the doctype and to me even though I put it right) thats what is confusing me, as I know I didnt change it.

If you are deleting the old one off the server and then uploading and it is not working, then try renaming te old one to index_old.html and then upload the new one.

Try using either Allycode it's a good editor or Notepad++ (just make sure when you save the file the extension is correct ) here is the link
Free Editors to get you Started or for Quick Use

Thanks Ishkey, have got notepad++ and think we posted near enough the same time, as have attatched a notepad file in the post just above your last post.

Something is changing the charset if its not me then its got to be something when uploading to my site. If thats the case then will have to figure it out, as have used both ftp and the sites own uploader now and both with the same wrong results.

Thanks

Angie

maybe you should save the file as a html and not a txt file
this could be the problem if you uploaded a text file, then the old file on the server has never changed.

pusscat · #30 (**permalink**) 10-26-2009, 12:19 PM

I do save as .html file and upload that to site ishkey this one is just to show you the code before I upload the html file to site if that makes sense.

Will try again now with this one and see what happens, but if you read the code thats what is on the html file, so if it changes then something is definately up.
