You should be. Don't blind visitors come to your parks? Oh, and Google
always has images turned off...

Please start quoting the parts of the message you are replying to. If
you don't then people here will get fed up with you and start ignoring
you.

You are using non-standard proprietary extensions to HTML. That is why
the validator is telling you that some of your attributes do not
exist. The extensions you are using are a mix if Netscape 4 extensions
and IE 4 extensions. And you are using an odd combination of the two
(i.e. the Netscape extensions you use and the IE extensions you use do
not do the same thing).

Some modern browsers support various combinations of these for
backwards compatability, but continued support in the future is not
guaranteed. If you followed the advice given and fixed the validation
errors in your HTML then you would be on the right path as you would
need to replace these proprietary extensions with CSS which (as this
doesn't involve any of the parts of CSS not supported by IE) is well
supported today and tomorrow.
