It looks like there are 2 different type of errors being reported by the validator.

1. Those that reference meta tags help display your blog in twitter when people tweet a link. Please read more about this feature: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/cards There's not much that can be done about these unfortunately.

2. Paragraphs that set the "align" attribute to "justify" or "center". This code exists in your post's content area and you can easily remove this by editing your post from the HTML tab. The code will look similar to this:

<p align="justify">

Removing these will get rid of most of the errors.

http://dsiliceo.wordpress.com/2012/11/09/rodinal-casero/

in

http://validator.w3.org

but the validator returned mor than 50 errors in the page. When I checked the source code of my page, I see that all the errors were caused by the code the theme add to my page.

Is that a "normal" thing? How can I avoid this problem?

Thanks.

This is because my blog title contains a single quote (apostrophe) "Varma's blog on ....".

The offending line in the WordPress HTML source is
<link rel='index' title='Prof. Jayanth R. Varma's Financial Markets Blog' href='http://jrvarma.wordpress.com' />

In the past, I presume, WordPress was using double quotes for the blog title instead of single quotes
because in the past my blog did validate as HTML.

Is there a simple solution other than changing my blog title?
