showbiz Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Can someone 'splain this to me? I have been running my web pages through the W3C Markup Validation and I get a warning that a special character (round bullet) • should really be changed to the more widely accepted • However, everytime I make that correction and save my file....the • pops right back up. I am using Dreamweaver (probably should have posted this there...) and then uploading. Is this happening because Dreamweaver doesn't recognize the new symbol code? Should I ignore the validation warnings? Should I choose another symbol? Should I try using another editor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I find the ASCII HTML codes work the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showbiz Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Sorry, I didn't realize my post was translating into the actual bullet. I was using #149; and switched to #8226 which is on the list you suggested. But, when I make the change from 149 to 8226 and save the file...the 149 pops back up. Do you suppose that is a Macromedia thing??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Sounds like it. You could alway use an image in it's place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showbiz Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 An image it will probably be. Thanks Bruce! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
