W3C and CSS checks: prestashop gives many errors !
We all want a website which works as good as possible.
Good coding (PHP, CSS, javascript, HTML) is importent, a website works better when it has no coding-errors.

Just tested http://www.prestashop.com and a couple of prestashop-websites with http://validator.w3.org/ and it's gave MANY MANY ERRORS !!!

So, let's hope this problem will be fixed too ;-)

Don't worry. It's an issue the PrestaShop team is aware of and they plan to run everything through the validator and fix any issues before releasing the final version of PrestaShop v1.4.

I have also checked and keep checking Prestashop versions for W3C errors, from 1.3.7 to now newly released 1.4.1
Exact figures of CSS errors for version 1.4.1 are:

Under CSS 2.1 validation: 65 errors, 1058 warnings
Under CSS 3 validation: 65 errors, 1076 warnings

To me, this seems quite a bit. I was able to reduce number of CSS errors (that appear in global.css) when switching to my theme, but majority of errors come from this file: "prestashop/css/jquery-ui-1.8.10.custom.css"

Also, huge chunk of warnings (from over 1000 pool) is related to "background color" not being specified.

I hope this helps to anyone.
