Question

I’m validating my website using the W3C HTML validation, and I’m getting errors for adding a line break in an ordered list.

E.g.:

<ol>
    <li>Stuff</li><br/>
    <li>Stuff2</li><br/>
</ol>

with successful validation would print

1. Stuff Stuff2

but it should be

1. Stuff
2. Stuff2

Without the line breaks it validates fine, but the list elements aren’t on individual lines.
Is there a way that the site validates WHILE line breaking each stuff element?

Answer 1

I feel WOW on <br/> between <li>. <li> itself puts things in next line always..and you don’t have anything in <ol> except <li>,

If you want some extra gap between <li>'s than use margin in CSS.

And how you say that:

with successful validation would print

1. Stuff Stuff2

This will not going to happen with <li> though.
