There really are errors in the page but this is not one of them, but the validator shows it is. 11315 1 ot 2006-08-30 05:51:02 +0000 I can't reproduce anymore as the test case document given has changed, but given how broken the markup on that page is at the moment (lost of non matching closing and opening tags), I can only assume that at the time of the report, the error was either 1) accurate or 2) cascading from another error earlier in the source. It is generally a good idea to fix errors sequentially, since cascading errors tend to happen.
