I don't think it's a matter of being up to date - HTML Tidy and the W3C validator service have different (even if overlapping) functions. Tidying up lint and errors is not the same as validating to W3C standards, as I think you found out when you used the validation service.

I don't think I can be of much more help to you, partly because I have only just started to learn something of XHTML 1.1 (the template I uploaded last night asking for comments is in XHTML 1.0) and partly because my taste lies towards the simple, even austere, in markup. I don't doubt for a moment that your XHTML and CSS are organised logically and systematically, but they are so complex that at my level I can't comprehend the pattern.

I've found it very hard to get much information about XHTML 1.1; could you tell me please what sources you used?
