Issue Summary

in node.tpl.php you should change

<span class="taxonomy"><?php print $terms?></span>

to

<div class="taxonomy"><?php print $terms?></div>

w3c validator complains that

document type does not allow element "ul" here

because

you have attempted to put a block-level element inside an inline element

I've actually re-written the entire theme to eliminate the tables, fix several issues, and to provide a 6.x version. The re-write is completely WC3 compliant. We're in the final stages of beta testing before I update the d.o project page. In the mean time, you can see and download the new version at the NewsFlash Demo Site.

I think you can close this issue.

Same problem in 6.1.6. Same solution:

- replace <span class="taxonomy>... by a div in node.tpl.php, to abide by the block/inline containment rules
- add display: inline to node .taxonomy in style.css
