Description Simon Pieters 2009-09-03 12:29:23 CEST

"Error: Bad value 1 for attribute border on element img: Only 0 is a permitted zero literal."

This reads as advice to use border="0" instead. However, that will still produce a warning, and the author probably wants the border. So it would be more helpful if the message said to use CSS instead.

As a result of recent changes for other bugs, it does now (it reports both the error and the warning and advice to use CSS instead).
