I don't know how to fix this error:

Line 139, column 390: required attribute "ALT" not specified

...C%20212.jpg" width="137" height="116"></font></font></font></font></font></fo

The attribute given above is required for an element that you've used, but you have omitted it. For instance, in most HTML and XHTML document types the "type" attribute is required on the "script" element and the "alt" attribute is required for the "img" element.

Typical values for type are type="text/css" for <style> and type="text/javascript" for <script>.

why do you have all of the fonts??

after the height in <img src="image.jpg" width="137" height="116">

you should add an alt attribute like this:

<img src="image.jpg" width="137" height="116" alt="alternate text">

The alt attribute is so that if the picture doesnt load on a browser, text is shown in place.

I hope this helps. If you need any more questions, check out http://www.w3schools.com
