sorry i should add that the error message is Line 53, column 13: there is no attribute "ALIGN" (explain...). <p align="justify"><b>At present over 125 million children around the world cheers, jim

The Align atttribute is not valid, neither is <b> use <strong> instead.

| it allows it everywhere else?! |
| Actually, it doesn't... It just saves you the trouble of reading mutiple lines with the exact same error ;) Which DTD are you validating against? Have you considered using CSS? p { text-align: justify; } |
| Also, you shouldn't use empty paragraphs <p></p>. User agents are supposed to ignore them.

| Cause dreamweaver sucks ;) Try using <p style="text-align:justify;> instead. <edit>looks like doc beat me to it</edit>
