Just for the fun of it I checked msn.com, shopping.msn.com, yahoo.com, and cooking.com using the "integrated validation" link of "Checky" from FireFox browser. Not one link completely passed validation. The major problems seem to be with the content of the compact policy of the HTTP header. Interesting.
