It is technically conforming, but the example is trying to associate a <dd> with a subsequent <dt>, which has never been possible. It's also not clear what the use case for doing so is. Just swap the <dt> and <dd> for the 2nd term and description, and it gives the intended meaning. -- Lachlan Hunt http://lachy.id.au/
