HTML Guide for head
There is an iframe tag inside a noscript tag that is itself inside the head section of the HTML document. This is not allowed because an iframe cannot be nested inside the head section.
To fix this issue, you may move the noscript section that contains the iframe tag outside of the head section, and ensure that it is placed within the body section of the HTML document.
For example, this is invalid HTML because the head section cannot contain iframe elements:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>My webpage</title>
<noscript>
<p>Please enable JavaScript to view this website</p>
<iframe src="https://example.com/"></iframe>
</noscript>
<!-- Other meta tags and styles go here -->
</head>
<body>
<!-- Rest of your webpage content goes here -->
</body>
</html>
Moving the noscript inside the body section fixes the issue, as that’s where iframe elements belong:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>My webpage</title>
<!-- Other meta tags and styles go here -->
</head>
<body>
<noscript>
<p>Please enable JavaScript to view this website</p>
<iframe src="https://example.com/"></iframe>
</noscript>
<!-- Rest of your webpage content goes here -->
</body>
</html>
The <head> section of an HTML document contains metadata about the document, and as a minimum it must include a <title> tag defining the document title.
Common causes for this issue are forgetting to define the <title>, or duplicated <head> sections where one of them does not include the title.
Here’s an example of a minimal HTML document including the title:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Don't panic! This is the title</title>
</head>
<body>
<p></p>
</body>
</html>
<meta> tags, used for defining metadata about HTML documents, must appear within the <head>...</head> section, but it has been found out of place. Check the document structure to ensure there are no <meta> tags outside the head section.
A common cause of this issue is having a duplicated, out of place <head>...</head> section. Ensure that this section appears in its proper place and is the only container for <meta> tags.
An opening <head> tag has been found in an incorrect place. Check that there’s only a <head> tag in the document.
This issue can happen because the expected closing tag </head> was misspelled as <head>, as in this example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Or, it could happen because another <head>...</head> section was nested inside a previous one:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<head>
</head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
A <head> start tag has been found in an unexpected place in the document structure. Check that the <head> section appears before the <body> section, and that is not duplicated.
The <head> section of an HTML document is the container of metadata about the document, and must appear before the <body> section. A common cause of this issue is duplicated <head> sections.
Here is an example of a minimal HTML document structure:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<p></p>
</body>
</html>
