Hi PeterT,
The first example I gave has the ul tag as a child of the p tag which is illegal.
See the missing closing p tag before the start of the ul tag in the example I posted.
The reason I used that example is because this is what CalibUser's sequence of steps generates inside of BV when it follow it. It creates a ul child of a p.

Here it shows

as a valid example. |
The above is correct. The closing p tag at the end of the first line prevents the ul tag from being the child of a p tag. The only issue with the above is you can not style it easily as a whole single paragraph, which is why the spec calls for using a div instead to allow that (but it is not required).
Sorry to be confusing. I should have just used CalibUser's example instead of one borrowed from the spec.
To be more specific CalibUser's sequence of events generates the following:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<p>
<ul>
<li>Takes advantage of the new facilities in Sigil version 0.9.0.0 so that it is no longer necessary to install external libraries eg Beautiful Soup.<br /></li>
<li>Files for processing can be selected in Sigil before the plugin runs; these files are highlighted in the list in the ePubTidy dialog.<br /></li>
</ul>
</p>
</body>
</html>
In other words it makes a ul a child of a p tag.
Hope this is clearer.
