The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you’ve placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you’ve forgotten to close a previous element.
One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>"
or "<table>"
) inside an inline element (such as "<a>"
, "<span>"
, or "<font>"
).
Here is the line in error:
