Re: Nu-HTML checker - <details> as child of <figure>?

Our situation was indeed the first case:

<figure>
  <img src=foo alt=bar>
  <figcaption>...</figcaption>
  <details><summary>...</summary></details>
</figure>

Though we would prefer that <details> came immediately after <figcaption>,
we can change our script to achieve this confirming case:

<figure>
  <figcaption>...</figcaption>
  <img src=foo alt=bar>
  <details><summary>...</summary></details>
</figure>

Thanks again,

Joseph
