It was nothing to do with the <li> tags. I've discovered that the W3C validator is affected by Php server side code which I find surprising. Although the html source validates, when I gave the validator a url to the php page it failed saying that some <ul> tags were not closed. However I traced the cause of the error to a php variable in some sql code, when I replaced the php variable with a fixed value in the sql code the validator passed the page as valid xhtml. This is not really a solution, only a workaround that in this situation I can get by with. David: I don't see any view source link, only the Validation Output link.

Because the validator thinks there are no <li> tags within the <ul> tags it gives an error. Thanks, Nick
