If you validated your HTML [1] you would discover the source of your
problem -- that the P element can't contain the BLOCKQUOTE element.
Most HTML user agents will thus end the P before the BLOCKQUOTE and then
ignore the stray end-tag (which is the only error, since P's end-tag is
optional).

Help questions like this are really not appropriate for this list, which
is about discussion of the future development of web stylesheet
specifications.
