And drat but upon a second look I see I messed up the above.  I forgot
to remove the "http:" from the img tag src url.  Drat!  Which means
the entirety of the problem is not solved by it.  I should have said:

  <a href="//validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer">
    <img src="//www.w3.org/Icons/valid-xhtml10"
         alt="Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict" height="31" width="88" /></a>

I know you went on to write the below.  But I wanted to fix my error
in the above.  :-(

I like it.  Using "https:" is certainly always safe.
