W3C Validator Notes and Potential Issues
The following notes and warnings highlight missing or conflicting information which caused the validator to perform some guesswork prior to validation, or other things affecting the output below. If the guess or fallback is incorrect, it could make validation results entirely incoherent. It is highly recommended to check these potential issues, and, if necessary, fix them and re-validate the document.
Warning Character Encoding suggestion: use us-ascii instead of ascii
The character encoding declared for this document (ascii) may not be widely supported. This encoding is equivalent to us-ascii which may be better supported across platforms.
