You have a <p> which contains a <ul>
End the <p> before the <ul> starts.

"Line 54, column 5: end tag for element "P" which is not open"

Your </p> on line 54 is meant to match the <p> on line 44. But in between
you have a UL element (unordered list). A P element (paragraph) can only
contain inline code. It can't contain blocks. A list is a block.

The reason you didn't get an error back at line 47, where the <UL> for the
list is located, is that the end tag for a P element is optional. Therefore,
when the validator is in the middle of a P element and it finds the start
tag for something that isn't allowed in the P element, it just assumes that
the P element ends there, pretending there is a </p> immediately preceding
the new start tag (the <UL> in this case). In other words, it tries to avoid
finding an error at that point. Therefore, the validator is happy until you
get to the </p> on line 54, at which point you're not *in* a P element, so
you've got an end tag with no corresponding start tag.

Yes, you have attempted to include a list inside a paragraph, but
according to the HTML4 DTD, <p> cannot contain <ul> elements. Also,
then end tag for <p> is optional, thus it is automatically being closed
in the DOM when the <ul> is encountered, so the <p> is no longer open
when the </p> is reached.

Either take out the </p> entirely, or just move it to the end of the
paragraph, before the start of the list.

The UL element is not part of the content model for element P.

Move your </p> markup to above the start tag for UL in the line number
area where the error is detected.

I just answered you in c.i.w.a.site-design. If you had NOT multi-posted
this, you would have saved me time.

Rather insensitive of you. If you wish to get advice from more than one ng
on the exact same question, cross-post it so we may see if it's been
answered already.
