HTML validation isn't validating?

I'm trying to validate my XHTML 1.0 but I've got 2 error's which I can't seem to fix no matter what. Could someone just take a look at it and if so provide alternatives to it? When I change 'email' to text my JS stops working. 

Line 49, Column 58: there is no attribute "required"

…id="first-name"  type="text" required="required" onkeypress="return onlyAlphab…


Error Line 63, Column 41: value of attribute "type" cannot be "email"; must be one of "text", "password", "checkbox", "radio", "submit", "reset", "file", "hidden", "image", "button"

XHTML has no input of type email and has no form validation so required does not exists. Those are elements are added in HTML5

The "required" attribute and the "type=email" come with HTML5, your document use xhtml 1.0 strict.

You can :

  • change the doctype to HTML5 : <!DOCTYPE html>

or

  • remove those attribute / type :)
