591 PointsError in HTML
I just checked my html with the w3 validator and it came up with the following error.
Error Line 7, Column 144: Bad value http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,400italic,700,700italic,800|Changa+One for attribute href on element link: Illegal character in query: not a URL code point.
…s:400,400italic,700,700italic,800|Changa+One' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
Syntax of IRI reference:
Any URL. For example: /hello, #canvas, or http://example.org/. Characters should be represented in NFC and spaces should be escaped as %20.
Here is the full line: <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,400italic,700,700italic,800|Changa+One' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
Can someone please tell me what the error is and how I can fix it? Thanks.

I wouldn't worry too much about this one though.
