Validation on DW8 and W3C raises this one with me
Error C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\TOnline\index.cfm The tag: "td" doesn't have an
attribute: "background" in currently active versions.
:: Doctype Validation ::
On XHTML Transitional validation picked up 64 errors, changing my doctype to
HTML 4 Trans. Loose reduced me to 11 errors (which I am working through) but
the above issue is nagging me I dont know how to fix it anyone with some idea?

Background is deprecated, you should be setting this from your style
sheet not the (x)html document.

I have now made the suggested change to add the background as a css element and
added that to the td but still picks up the error.
www.thompsons.co.za/indexdev.cfm

cfinclude file on the indexdev.cfm is flightsformdev.cfm

Are you looking at the background-image error? This is also deprecated,
you should have NO styling in your page, it should all be in the style
sheet.
