I ran the validation on my cart which is located in a sub folder. I have added a few purchased mods, but have not installed anything else. I just ran the tool again and it gave me 103 errors.

Re: Markup Validation Service
 

I ran the tool on xcarts demo for gold. Test came back as a pass.

I do not understand this.

Re: Markup Validation Service
 

Disable all the modules you have added and put it through the validator after turning each one on. Find out which module is the culprit.

Re: Markup Validation Service
 

Well I found that The on-sale module added errors, buy-together added errors, one-page added more errors.

The map price module is the only one that did not create any errors.

I have sent an email to Bill on this, Hopefully he will get back to me soon.

Re: Markup Validation Service
 

Well after talking a few times with Bill today, It comes down to a problem with xcart.

Thank you Bill for taking the time on a Sunday to help.
