Anyone know why you can't validate XHTML Transitional if you are using 
an external linked stylesheet (as in <link rel="stylesheet" 
href="mystyle.css" type="text/css" media="screen"/> in the head tag), 
the validator on the W3C website flags your tags defined in your linked 
stylesheet as not defined even when you provide the full URI of the web 
page you want to validate.  I assume it's because the validator doesn't 
then check the linked CSS file for any selector tags you have defined, 
can only think of two ways around this, either using a style class or 
embed/inline the styles?
