Garbage code, every error in the book, don't bother.

How do you expect anyone to take you seriously on the topic of web
design when your own site is riddled with errors?

And why on Earth are you defining your code as XHTML 1.1 when it
doesn't even validate as HTML 4.01 Transitional?

Another baddie (which the W3C Validator also pointed out): inside the
XML declaration, you've defined your document as ISO-8859-1, yet you
redefine your document as "windows-1252" in a <meta> tag further down
in the code. Why is that?

Yet another one: why do you keep mentioning "FutureWeb.com" in your
text? Did you steal the content from them? Did you recently buy the
domain name (the website for that domain specifies it as "for sale")?
Or do you just want to sound a bit more professional in the industry
than you really are?

Or http://www.geocities.com/gayeshan/ with the trailing slash to avoid
an unnecessary redirect... I hate it when people leave that out.

The copyright notice at the bottom says "All rights reserved for the
Department of Computer Science in KEELE University, United
Kingdom-2003." So it's a site hosted at GeoCities, mentioning a
different .com domain, and with a copyright notice from a .ac.uk
institution. There seem to be some multiple personalities active here.

FutureWeb.com is promoting Table-based Layout. Enough said.
