HTML Checking for Large Sites
Rocket Validator automatically scans your sites for accessibility issues using the W3C Validator,
hosted on our own servers and integrated into our web crawler.
When was the last time you validated your whole site?
Keep your sites healthy checking for A11Y/HTML issues on an automated schedule.
HTML issues tagged as text not allowed.
The <ul> element is used to define unordered lists, where each element must be contained within a <li> element, like in this example:
<ul>
<li>first element</li>
<li>second element</li>
<li>third element</li>
</ul>
Ensure that there’s no content inside the <ul> element that is not contained within a <li> element.
Sometimes this error comes when trying to give a title to the list, for example:
<ul>
Fruits
<li>Apple</li>
<li>Orange</li>
</ul>Instead, that title text should be outside the list, like:
<span>Fruits</span>
<ul>
<li>Apple</li>
<li>Orange</li>
</ul>
Other times, this can come as the concatenation of <li> elements which results in something like:
<ul>
<li>First item</li>
<li>Second item</li>
<li>Third item</li>
</ul>
Note how in this case that used to join the <li> is causing the problem, as it’s content that is not contained by a <li> element, as required by the <ul> element.
