The forum doesn't validate according to http://validator.w3.org/ - http://validator.w3.org/
Will this be corrected in future updates?
 
BTW. The new version 9 is just great!
Just bought a license...

Yep no problem, if you want a very basic forum with no dynamic features, and not much security.

With something like this which is very complex to get it to work in all the popular browsers, many of which are not standards compliant, would be an almost impossiable task to have it fully validate.

More important is have the software work and work well in both current and previous browsers. The validation sites don't even like things like querystrings on URL's and it would be impossible to build this software without the use of querystings and therefore it throws a validation error for every single link on a page.

I know it would take a life-time og two to get it to validate...

By which time there would be new standards and new validation rules and you would have lots of new validation errors and depreciation errors.
