CSS formating is giving me an error when I try to validate the file
Line 8, Column 7: end tag for "STYLE" omitted, but its declaration does not permit this ✉ •You forgot to close a tag, or •you used something inside this tag that was not allowed, and the validator is complaining that the tag should be closed before such content can be allowed. The next message, "start tag was here" points to the particular instance of the tag in question); the positional indicator points to where the validator expected you to close the tag. Line 7, Column 1: start tag was here
<html> <head> <title>Randy's first html web page !</title> <style type="text/css"> </head> body h1 { background-color:#6495aa; margin-right:1350px; } h2 { background-color:#b0c4de; margin-right:1350px; } p { background-color:#649fff; margin-right:1350px; } div { background-color:#efffff; } </style>

You closed your head before your style, so the validator sees it as you've already finished with <style>, and take it that you forgot to close it before </head>, try:
<html> <head> <title>Randy's first html web page !</title> <style type="text/css"> body h1 { background-color:#6495aa; margin-right:1350px; } h2 { background-color:#b0c4de; margin-right:1350px; } p { background-color:#649fff; margin-right:1350px; } div { background-color:#efffff; } </style> </head>
also, I saw
body h1 { ...
Is that intended?
