HTML5 validator is reporting a missing opening tag for <p> when I clearly have the opening tag before it. If this is an error about a <p> tag no allowed where it is, then the description is ambiguous. Steps to reproduce: Not sure if this is reproducible in all websites, but here is a link to my validation page and see the error yourself. http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=chen.asraf.me Actual error is: No p element in scope but a p end tag seen.

Please see http://validator.w3.org/nu/?showsource=yes&doc=http%3A%2F%2Fchen.asraf.me%2F#l39c138 On line 38 you have an <p> start tag and a </p> end tag -- which is all good -- but then on line 39 you have a </p> end tag without a <p> start tag. > Steps to reproduce: > Not sure if this is reproducible in all websites, but here is a link to my > validation page and see the error yourself. > http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=chen.asraf.me For validating HTML5 documents, please consider using http://validator.w3.org/nu/ instead. > Actual error is: > No p element in scope but a p end tag seen. Right -- that's because you don't have any <p> start tag on line 39.
