    XHTML Validation using Javascript in <td> tag

    Hello,

    This is the only line in my entire code that does not validate in
    XHTML :

    <td width="24" bgcolor="#33006 6" onclick="javasc ript:color1()"
    class="borderWi dthr"></td>

    However, it is valid HTML,since I've defined the function color in the
    javascript section of the <head> tag.

    This is the error that I get:

    Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an
    SGML parser.

    Line 176, column 40: there is no attribute "onClick" (explain...).

    (And Yes.. onclick is not in Caps in my code).

    Do I specifically need a form object for it to validate in XHTML???
    Something like
    <input name="mybutton" type="button" onclick="color1 ()" />

    Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks
    Russ

      Eugh. What a lot of deprecated yuck that should be moved to CSS. It looks
      like table abuse too.

      There is no relationship between the existance of a JavaScript function, an
      the validity of the code HTML.

      Then either:

      (1) Something is wrong with the validator
      or
      (2) You are misreading your own code

      I suspect that 2 is more likely. A URI would make it a lot easier to
      troubleshoot.

      No.

          I don't believe you.

          A URL would resolve the matter.
