    <thetext>&gt; An end tag whose tag name is one of: &quot;dd&quot;, &quot;dt&quot;, &quot;li&quot;
&gt;
&gt;    If the stack of open elements does not have an element 
&gt;    in scope with the same tag name as that of the token, 
&gt;    then this is a parse error.
&gt;
&gt;   Otherwise, run these steps:
&gt;
&gt;      1. Generate implied end tags, except for elements 
&gt;         with the same tag name as the token.
&gt;      2. If the current node is not an element with the 
&gt;         same tag name as that of the token, then this 
&gt;         is a parse error.
&gt;      3. Pop elements from the stack of open elements 
&gt;         until an element with the same tag name as the 
&gt;         token has been popped from the stack. 

What if there&apos;s no corresponding element on the stack? Shouldn&apos;t the first paragraph end with &quot;then this is a parse error; ignore the token.&quot;?</thetext>

    <thetext>Does the spec requiring you to &quot;Ignore this token&quot; cause you to do something different than it not requiring you to do anything? :-)

(Will fix for consistency.)</thetext>

&gt; Does the spec requiring you to &quot;Ignore this token&quot; cause you to do something
&gt; different than it not requiring you to do anything? :-)

The inconsistency confused me, so I think it&apos;s worth stating explicitly when a token gets ignored.</thetext>
