Latest News + - invalid code
Hello 
It seems that there is an issue with W3C validation and this module.
The W3C validator doesn't seem to like the fact that there is no <li></li> inside the <ul> tags.
See below, please.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thank you.

Line 639, Column 13: end tag for "ul" which is not finished
</ul>
Another possibility is that you used an element which requires a child element that you did not include. Hence the parent element is "not finished", not complete. For instance, in HTML the <head> element must contain a <title> child element, lists require appropriate list items (<ul> and <ol> require <li>; <dl> requires <dt> and <dd>), and so on.

Hi Thanks for responding so quickly.
The site link is www.ebme.co.uk/test/ (Many errors as it is a test page).
The validator direct link is validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2F...%2Fservices#line-300
On the validator page - the affected lines are #298 - #300
Thanks.

Most likely, you nested tags and closed them in the wrong order. For example <p><em>...</p> is not acceptable, as <em> must be closed before <p>. Acceptable nesting is: <p><em>...</em></p>

Hi,
Yes you are correct, the issue does not exist with Protostar.
I will contact the template guys to see what they say.
Thanks.
