Greetings gang,
Small question about BLOCKQUOTE in XHTML Strict.
I've got a question for the semanticists here. (Is that a word? Yes it is!)
<blockquote>Whatever you're quoting</blockquote> is incorrect
<blockquote><p>Whatever you're quoting</p></blockquote> is correct.
The error the validator returns is: text is not allowed here; try wrapping
the text in a more descriptive container.
Why do we need a <p> tag within the <blockquote>?
Thanks.
