I also have the same error over and over with this page. I tried understanding it, but I have no idea. Most of them are "." period puncation marks. *Scartches head*

For the first site:

In errors 1 and 2 you're trying to use an id on two different elements. An id is for one element only. If you want the same styles applied to both the span and div you want to use a class instead of an id. You should also put quotes around the id (or class) name in the html.

I'm pretty sure the <center> tag is deprecated as well though I'm not sure why it's didn't cause an error.

In number 3 you're using the colspan attribute on an image. it only works on table cells. You just can't use it on the image.

Error number 4 looks like an empty table row. You shouldn't need an empty row, but if you do I think you need to fill it with table cells to match the rest of the table layout.

For the second site I think the character in question is an em dash instead of a regular dash. I would think it would be fine, but it's possible the em dash isn't included as part of iso-8859-1. Did you copy the text from something like Microsoft Word? Word may be using an encoding that's not part of the character set you specified.
