W3C XHTML and CSS icon link

In my page, I have a footer, including this:

<a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"><img src="../images/misc/valid-xhtml10.jpg" alt="Validate XHTML 1.0!" title="Validate XHTML 1.0" /></a>

1) The link brings up the W3C page, and it reports valid XHTML. Good.

2) The src loads an image on the site's host, not the W3C site. I modified it, set a canvas background to match the div that it sits in, and made it a tad smaller.

Am I a very bad boy for doing this?

Secondly, and this is doing my nut in, I can't find a link similar to the XHTML above, to give me a page which says "valid CSS". I have the icon, same changes as above, but no link.

It's like drawing teeth trying to find this.

Can someone supply me with <a href= ?

Thanks. I needed that too.

I normally use extensions for Mozilla for doing this, but that is more useful for one thing I am doing right now.

g1smd, what Mozilla extensions are you referring to?

I usually use the HTML Validator 0.8.4.0 or whatever the version is now.

However, I am currently doing something where there is only Safari and IE available, so having the referrer link (on every page, via a global "include") still allows easy checking of the HTML and CSS code.
