    LINE 15:  CSS links belong INSIDE the <head>  </head> tags, not outside them.

    Not really.  The issues are already there but because you have far too many validation errors, the online validation service is choking on them all & giving up after LINE 48: Cannot recover...

     

    Without seeing a URL, I suggest you spend some time learning proper HTML5 syntax and structure so you can identify your errors and fix them.  DW and Bootstrap both require a good understanding of code basics.  See links below:

    Good luck!

    The message says it all, in HTML5, there is no need for the type attribute

     

    This means that you can safely remove the attribute
