  7. Correctly Nested Tags • Some can take any content • divisions, footers • Some have restrictions • Paragraphs can not have lists inside them • Some tags are limited as to where they can appear • List items can only appear in lists • Incorrectly nested tags MAY appear to work

  8. Special Characters

  9. Special symbols • < and > are special symbols with special meanings How would you display A < B ? Suggestions? • &lt; for < and &gt;for > & is an escape symbol, handled specially. Always ends with ; • Means that you need a special way to display “&” too: &amp; • Full lists on Resources page
