No, I don't think it's anything to do with the WB version since all versions will use the template to control page layout. I don't know what template you started with so I have no idea if that template would validate either. Most of the issues appear to be easy to fix. For example, you are either missing or have your your closing HEAD tag in the wrong place; didn't close BR tags, missing IMG ALT attribute...these are all pretty easy to fix.
