Hi there. I wanted to validate my html-code (XHTML 1.0 Transitional). This construct was reported to be invalid: <a href='some_link.html' style='display: block;' > <h1> Title<br /> <div style='margin-left: 320px; font-size: 9px;'>01.01.2005</div> </h1> <img src='some_image.gif' width='10' height='10' alt='description' style='float: right;' />Some teaser text...<br /> <div style='margin-left: 300px;'>[more...]</div> </a> The validator reported, that I must not place an block-element (like h1) inside an inline-element (like a). As You can see, my a-element is explicitely set to 'display: block;'. My question: Is it a bug or a missing feature of the validator, not to interpret the style-directive display: block and still assuming, any a-element to be an inline-element? Or is the error, reported to me, unclear, in the way, that the problem has nothing to do with an surrounding element being a block- or an inline-element? Thanks for a brief answer...
