In the scene in the library in Venice when Indy, Dr. Elsa Schnieder and Marcus Brody. Indy finds that X marks the spot. The next scene is Indy breaking through the floor. Notice that the X has disappeared. Whoops!
The X IS there. It can be seen when Indy is digging the floor up, although it is faint. Maybe you need to review your requirements for this slip-up because sharp eyes are something that you obviously don't possess.

I just watched the DVD today, and actually noticed this, too. Even reviewed the whole scene again just to make sure. From the top of the staircase we can see a large "X" in dark (green?) floor tiles on a white tile background. The white tiles for a square, which is bordered by dark red tiles. When Indy is breaking the floor, it is a solid green square outlined by the red. No white, no "X". No matter what angle you view it at, the "X" is completely gone.

The X HAS gone! Directly after the comical scene with the librarian who is confused by the loud stamping sounds, we cut back to our heroes to see a wide shot of Indy breaking the floor. The X has been replaced with a large, grey, blank floor. No X!

That's right. If they made it too obvious then there would be no challenge to finding the Grail. So you had to be at a different angle to see the big X. But if you look closely enough to the floor when they are there....you can make out the X.

The X is NOT there. If you look just prior to where he climbs up the stairs, you can plainly make out not only the X but the different white/red/black colors on the tiles. Once he comes down and he's pounding on the floor with the metal thing, you can see from a wide angle that it's gone. Compare the size of the X and surrounding white area in the shots before he climbs to after and you can plainly see that it's missing.
