Help, Please! I am trying to validate a CSS page - yuck! The message is somewhat similar to this for 535 errors for one page with a table - "Value Error : border-width only 0 can be a length. You must put a unit after your number : 1" My question is what do they mean by this saying width can only be a length? Where I went to school length and width were not the same thing. *smile* And - besides all this - the line number it gives doesn't show anything close to what the message reads. I mean that they have 4000 or more lines and the document has a little over 2000 or so. I feel a little more than stupid about this but then I am new to CSS and probably don't even begin to understand the language. I could use some help from someone out there who has some CSS knowledge to share with me. Donna Cooper

Remember any time you use a number for measurement it requires the unit also - px or em or for border thin or thick. pat
