can someone explain why its not validating? I tried fixing it but I think its something minimal I'm missing..I see that the break tags aren't valid so not talkin about those.. but the other 49 errors.
Thx

You're using an HTML syntax on your XHTML document's INPUT elements. Add a space and / before the > on your input tags - that'll clear most of the errors up.

You're also using fieldsets, which require legends to be used as well. You also have to associate your labels with your inputs with the ID attribute on the input matching the label's for attribute.

Fieldset is the proper element for dividing up sections of a form. The required legend element acts like a heading for that section of the form.

But to fix your error, put the "zip" ID attribute value inside the empty ID attribute that's associated with the label's for attribute with the same value. (In other words, make sure label for="zip" and input id="zip" match up instead of having that input's ID attribute be blank.)
