Hi all -
For the Marking up a Letter project in MDN, I included <br>
tags under the <dl>
element and after running it through the W3 Html Checker, it was stated this was a wrong child to use under the <dl>
parent. My code is below - my question is, what is a better way to insert a line break between lines then? It also stated using the <div>
tag wasn’t a good option either.
Thanks!
<h2>Exotic dance moves</h2>
<p>Yes, you are right! As part of my post-doctorate work, I did study exotic tribal dances. To answer your question, my favourite dances are as follows, with definitions:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Polynesian chicken dance</dt>
<dd>A little known but very influential dance dating back as far as 300<u>BC</u>, a whole village would dance around in a circle like chickens, to encourage their livestock to be "fruitful".</dd>
<br>
<dt>Icelandic brownian shuffle</dt>
<dd>Before the Icelanders developed fire as a means of getting warm, they used to practice this dance, which involved huddling close together in a circle on the floor, and shuffling their bodies around in imperceptibly tiny, very rapid movements.</dd>
<br>
<dd>One of my fellow students used to say that he thought this dance inspired modern styles such as Twerking.</dd>
<br>
<dt>Arctic robot dance</dt>
<dd>An interesting example of historic misinformation, English explorers in the 1960s believed to have discovered a new dance style characterized by "robotic", stilted movements, being practiced by inhabitants of Northern Alaska and Canada.</dd>
<br>
<dd>Later on however it was discovered that they were just moving like this because they were really cold.</dd>
