Just checking some of the websites I've created using web designer for w3c compliance on http://www.validator.w3.org/ and some of the sites are passed but others are failed, now for the most part the errors are in the html code generated by web designer; one such error for one of my sites is
Line 109, Column 287: required attribute "alt" not specified
…span><img src="index_htm_files/0.gif" height="1px" width="134px"/> </span>

The attribute given above is required for an element that you've used, but you have omitted it. For instance, in most HTML and XHTML document types the "type" attribute is required on the "script" element and the "alt" attribute is required for the "img" element.
Typical values for type are type="text/css" for <style> and type="text/javascript" for <script>
The red highlighted colour is the error spotted. Some errors are to de with place holders such as Paypal. What can i do to fix this and why is web designer producing such stuff.
I know it is not a HTML editor and I love it because of that and the sites work fine and customers have not complained - but it still would be nice if I could put the W3C compliance logo on the sites.
The main reason it bothers me is that some of the sites are fine and do not bring up any errors at all.
Just my 2 half-pennies worth but I wonder if others have come across this.
