I am troubleshooting my site and noticed that it does not validate because of the slideshow on the home page. I have checked the demo on JA and noticed it has the same errors (I have eliminated the others and just have to deal with the ones related to the slide show to get it to validate.) If I turn off the slideshow module it validates.
here is an example of the errors related to the slideshow description from the demo. (Mine is mostly identical so this should show the problem clear enough)

<blockquote>Line 449, Column 38: document type does not allow element “h3” here; missing one of “object”, “applet”, “map”, “iframe”, “button”, “ins”, “del” start-tag

<span class=”ja-slide-desc”><h3>Top 10 Math Professors in LA</h3><br /><p…</blockquote>

Is there a valid way to include the text in the slideshow as on the home page?

Thanks,

T

I have noticed that it looks like this was fixed. I checked the demo on the Joomlart site and it now validates as the description text is no longer wrapped in span tags.
Was this an update to the template or to the Slideshow 2 module or did you just enter the text differently in the description area of the module?

Just want to get mine fixed too and know what needs to be changed.

here is a link to a test version of my site http://www.egannewmedia.com/dev6/

Thanks

We have fixed it in our demo, in your site please do the following:

– Find this code:

<div class="ja-slide-descs">
<?php foreach($captionsArray as $desc) {?>
<span class="ja-slide-desc"><?php //echo $desc?></span>
<?php }?>
</div>

change it to

<div class="ja-slide-descs">
<?php foreach($captionsArray as $desc) {?>
<div class="ja-slide-desc"><?php //echo $desc?></div>
<?php }?>
</div>

in templatesja_community_plushtmlmod_jaslideshowdefault.php.

ok, I actually had updated to Slideshow 2 so it was a little different in the overide. But I figured it out from what you did.

I found this line at approx line: 11

<?php if ($showdescwhen == 'always' && $captionsArray[$i]):?><span class="ja-slide-desc"><?php echo $captionsArray[$i];?></span><?php endif; ?>


and changed it to:

<?php if ($showdescwhen == 'always' && $captionsArray[$i]):?><div class="ja-slide-desc"><?php echo $captionsArray[$i];?></div><?php endif; ?>

Basically changed span to div and it validated.

Thank you for your help!!!!
I will now close the ticket!
