I noticed this too. Would be a safe bet it was hand crafted in notepad with no syntax highlighting.

Might just feed it to the W3C validator for kicks.

Update: The validator reported 42 errors before giving up:

  Fatal Error: Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.

Those were the days!

Save, open FTP/SCP client, copy to webserver, maybe poke/restart a service via SSH, back to browser, refresh... dammit, error, rinse repeat.

We're certainly spoiled having formatting, linting, tests and coverage all run on save these days :-)

Giving up? 42! How can you not see this as the sinister interference of Beelzebub!

42 hex in decimal is 66!
