So your code gets altered (because of the implied
end of paragraph rule) to

<p></p><p></p><p> ... </p></p></p>

which has two unmatched </p> tags in it. This happens
automatically when html parsing software reads your
code.

The lesson? Don't embed paragraphs within other
paragraphs. There's no reason to do it, and it's a violation
of html syntax rules.  dcb
