I hope you guys can help.
Well, i'm trying to get this page to validate as xhtml transitional. The validator says i can't use the <ul>. It states that there is missing an object, applet, map, etc.
It says i might be missing a containing element or forgot to close a previous element.
*It also says i possibly tried to put a block level element inside an inline element.
*Also, it says that <br /> is not allowed here. Missing <li> tag.
*Also, it says that <ul class="indent"> is not allowed here. Missing an object, applet, map, etc.
**Q.1. Could you please show me how to fix this page? Could you please list a sample source code that validates as xhtml using a <ul> unordered list that indents?<<<
***>>>I am trying to create a <ul> list that starts as a few <li> list items and then indents a couple of pix for the next <li> list items list.
Here's the source code.

You should also clean things up a big as the code is hard to read. I had to reformat the code locally in order to spot the problems.
In XHTML, all tags must be closed properly or the page won't validate.
Q.1. I also have a question. In any html/xhtml page, can you start a page without a <p> tag? Such as:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<ul>
etc...
</ul>
</body>
</html>
Thanks again to the both of you for your help. I appreciate it:)
