To bypass this particular error you=E2=80=99d need to escape the backslash =
in
`</font>`, as in

<font color=3D\"#ff0000\">Error<\/font>

However, this is generally poor code=E2=80=94poor HTML, poor CSS (which sho=
uld
be used instead of =E2=80=9Cfont=E2=80=9D elements and =E2=80=9Ccolor=E2=80=
=9D attributes), poor
JavaScript. I don=E2=80=99t have a good reference at hand to point you to, =
but
reconsider this and research more modern approaches to web
development.

Best,

 Jens.
