Hello list,
Sorry for intruding, as I'm not a member. I'm just experiencing an odd
error with I *think* is a bug in the validator, which is why I'm offering
it to the list. If I'm mistaken, I apologize in advance.
Anyway, this is the message it's reporting:
<p align="center"><hr width="65%" noshade size="1" color="000000"></p>
^
Error: end tag for element "P" which is not open; try removing the end
tag or check for improper nesting of elements
Now, call me crazy, but it looks very definitely like I can close that P
tag. When I look at the source tree, I see that it reports this:
<P>
</P>
<HR>
</HR>
It seems that the validator is a little too eager and closes the P tag on
its own before it gives me a chance. Am I correct that this is a bug, or
did I do something stupid?
Since I'm not on the list, please CC any feedback to me. :)
Thanks,
-David Newberry
