No. Validation will not help those in the slightest. Validation
simply means you have created your site to comply with a standard you
have declared. And if you've created your site using someone else's
site creation wizard, there is bugger all you can do about it.

????
I'm mystified. What ever happened to using your favourite editor to fix
coding problems?

Nothing. I'm assuming that this site is sold as a package to non
coders. The OP probably has as much chance of changing the core code
(which in turn is probably generated by a server side script) as he has
of knitting fog.

But hey, if you want to find a way for him to do it, knock yourself out.
Here is his site:

And here, I guess, is the way it was made

I believe you are incorrect on both points. If your pages are validated,
they are much more likely to run on low powered, palm type devices and
display properly than if they are not.

I'd like to see you prove it. Since the vast majority of pages out
there do not validate, users of hand held devices must be having a
pretty hard time.

A text editor can fix any incompatibility in the code if you are patient
and know what you are doing.

I'm starting to lose patience. Did anyone except me bother to take a
look at how the pages were made?

It only had two errors, nether critical. You could tell it was not done in
FP.
I dont think it maters that it might be hard to read on a phone as its full
of large images.

As a matter of fact, they are. Lots of pages do not display in anything
approaching the intended form.

Sure did. So the problem with downloading it, editing and putting it back
would be . . . .

Its very good that contact has both telephone and email, in addition
to the reply box. That hard to find or missing on most websites.
