Correctly-nested tags look like: <p><b>foo bar baz</b></p>
Incorrectly-nested tags look like: <p><b>foo bar baz</p></b>

Browsers will happily cope with incorrect nesting, so check at

Hi Tamara -
Long time no write! Have a quick question. What do you mean by "making sure
all the tags are nested ... "? "Closed" I got, but "nested" I'm unsure of
