Hope someone can help -
i have some nested lists, which work fine -
but W3C strict valdiation is spitting them out :-(
Below, Rhodie, Laurel and Sycamore are nested below "Control of invasive
exotic species."
61: <div class="myList">
62: <ul>
63: <li>Maintenance of the footpaths</li>
64: <li>Control of invasive introduced exotic species</li>
65: <ul>
66: <li>Rhododendron</li>
67: <li>Laurel</li>
68: <li>Sycamore</li>
69: </ul>
70: <li>Planting of exotic species</li>
71: <li>Island-maintenance to prevent erosion</li>
72: <li>loads of other stuff</li>
73: </ul>
74: </div>
I get
Line 65, column 3:
<ul>
^
Error: element "ul" not allowed here; assuming missing "li" start-tag
Line 70, column 3:
<li>Planting of exotic species</li>
^
Error: element "li" not allowed here; possible cause is an inline element
containing a block-level element
Line 71, column 3:
<li>Island-maintenance to prevent erosion</li>
^
Error: element "li" not allowed here; possible cause is an inline element
containing a block-level element
Line 72, column 3:
<li>loads of other stuff</li>
^
Error: element "li" not allowed here; possible cause is an inline element
containing a block-level element
Line 73, column 4:
</ul>
^
Error: end tag for "li" omitted; end tags are required in XML for non-empty
elements; empty elements require an end tag or the start tag must end with
"/>"
Line 65, column 0:
<ul>
Any ideas please?
thanks -
Hilma
