Erg, typical Bobby-fied page.

"Your browser does not support script. All functionality that is
provided with scripts is also available even if the scripts are
not working."

There is absolutely *no* point in this type of <noscript> message. It
adds nothing. It slows down screen readers. Users with scripting
disabled don't need to be told it is disabled.

Oh, and, the HTML is more than slightly screwed...

<NOSCRIPT><META content="MSHTML 6.00.2716.2200" name=GENERATOR></HEAD>
<BODY onload="...">Your browser does not support script...</NOSCRIPT>
<LINK href="Home.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>

...instead of worrying about these non-existent Bobby errors, may I
suggest you take a look at <http://tinyurl.com/1q4e>;?

Also, please note that "eng" isn't a valid language code.
