Anyone else noticed that the W3C validator is suddenly producing loads of warnings about background-colour or lack of?

i think it always did mention some but yep, it does seem a bit sensitive at the moment!

maybe they've wired in some female thought processes into the checks ;)

Yes, noticed it yesterday and thought "what the ....."

It kept saying my background and text were the same colour. Well yes they would have been if I hadn't applied a different colour in the external css. Very strange.

I think Dave's just asking for a slapping, but yes, it does seem to have been a mite tetchy of late.

No Dave - if it was using female though processes it'd be saying:

Warning: Do you really think that background colour is a good idea?  It really clashes with the image colour.

But then again, if it was a male thought process it wouldn't notice there were any colours let alone whether they clashed or not. Unless of course if they matched their fave team shirt colours. :)

Are you sure you aren't all using the gay validator?

You'll know because it always says
"Mmmm nice, but it would look so much nicer in turquoise darling."
