Additional Sidebar Markup – Can't Delete

[paulag01]

I am using Genesis Sample Child theme... and am a bit befuddled why I am getting an extra 2 horizontal lines on the sidebar for this site

http://thetimef.wwwss22.a2hosted.com/blog/

There should be one beneath "transitions and time" but there are 2 stray ones there. I have been checking my sidebar widgets but can't quite figure out where they are coming from.

Any ideas of where to nip this in the bud?

Thanks

Hi,

the site has a bunch of markup errors:

https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fthetimef.wwwss22.a2hosted.com%2Fblog%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

I guess that translated into one or two </div> elements being left over, causing the lines.

I did see that Christoph.

Problem is a lot of the validation issues are generated by items I did not create nor am I customizing. Example - some of those come from the Yoast plugin. I am certainly not going to start hacking their code.

Was hoping to find some stray <div> or something.

If you have any advice on how to strip out the validation errors (ones I don't have control over) vs ones I do when I look at the report, I'm all ears.

Thanks for your time.

I would take a look at the errors starting around line 230.

Firefox flags a bunch of tags in red in the page source, which usually indicates a problem:

Appreciate it. Going nuts... fixing what I see but not solving those darn lines.

Appreciate the screencasts.
