Most of the websites that I come across that have such an icon are nót valid, and vice versa.

My bad, I thought it was more logical to add something anyhow...

The latest news is that there is a patch for the validator up for review at the moment so the bug is going to get fixed soon anyway.

What will really get interesting is when we all start using CSS 2.1, interesting because the validator is checking CSS 2.0.

You are missing the whole point. The css conforms to the CSS 2.0 standard and is perfeclty valid. There is no error. We can already brag about that. What makes something valid is complying with the relevant standard not being passed by a rather buggy automated validator.

You could set the line-height to 0.0 as a workaround I expect.

My apologies for dragging up this old thread, but I would like to suggest an addition to this solution. Instead of converting all the values to 0.0 you can also add 'px' to them;

.pun .clearer, .pun .nosize {
    HEIGHT: 0px;
    WIDTH: 0px;
    LINE-HEIGHT: 0px;
    FONT-SIZE: 0px;
    OVERFLOW: hidden
}

base.css, line 23 to 29

I think it would be worth it if either one of these solutions would be adapted in the PunBB package, since it is the only CSS error that the standard theme contains. If corrected, PunBB('s Oxygen) will validate as fully Strict XHTML 1.0 and CSS - which simply ís something nice for the developers to brag about, imo .

It is valid: check the actual code itself
It's a mistake in the validator
