These are CSS attributes, such as float:left replacing align="left"
See
http://www.w3schools.com for a CSS tutorial.
Replacing the font tags with CSS will make maintenance much easier, but
none of these errors will prevent the page being displayed in any
browser.

Should be
html xmlns="http://www..w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Note the lower case L , not number one.
