Answer 1

You have this:

ul#navigation li#navigation-3 a.current { background-position: -164px -164px -36px; }

There are only two values needed to position a background, get rid of one and it should validate.

Update : you have this on all of your current selectors, remove the third value from all and it will be fine.

Answer 2

Background-position获取2个值，而不是3个。 请参见此处
