Hello,

I am getting tons of “Attribute (align) is obsolete. Its use is discouraged in HTML5 documents.” warnings in my PDT project. How do I ignore these warnings?

I have checked under Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Validation > HTML but I can’t figure out how to ignore these warnings.

Thanks

jthomas8,

The warnings will not break your code, so you can either ignore them instead of disabling the validations and masking the real issue or use CSS as an alternative to fix it.

Please take a look at these links which discuss similar issue with HTML5 validator :

Take a look at this document on how you can replace the obsolete attributes using CSS :

Hope it helps.
