Thanks for your help, Pat. The problem that I have here is that I created a table from a Word document that was in a file that was sent to me to use on the web. It seemed easier than recreating the entire page. A long story short - I found most of Microsoft's table boo-boos and repaired the entire page and have the 500 and some table errors now down to one error. I think that one is from the style sheet that Roots puts on the web pages that they host as part of the banner. Because - I can't find it anywhere in my file. It is for an unrecognized link element or xml-stylesheet PI. As to what xml-stylesheet might define, I have no clue. Help appreciated!!!
