    You should not be using <b></b> tags anymore use instead. I know it is a pain but <b></b> are deprecated in HTML 5.

    Looks almost like you are nesting the tags, you should not do that either.

    The kind of error you are talking about typically occurs when tags are not closed…so double check them.

    I’m sorry – use what instead? Maybe ?

    I’m not sure what you mean by nesting the tags. This is a client’s site I handed over a few weeks ago. I do know she’s copying and pasting the text for her testimonials from Yelp, Google+, etc. Is it bringing over formatting from those?

    Thanks!

    The <b> tag is soon to be ignored. She should replace any <b></b> with
    <strong></strong> tags.
    It may be bringing them over, I don’t know.

    It’s an HTML usage issue …. I think.

    With what tags? Something isn’t coming over in your post. All I see is to replace her <b></b> with tags. With what tags?

    <strong></strong> tags…..sorry

    When I look at the source I see her using nested tags as follows :
    <b>...content ...<b> .....more content ...</b> more content </b>

    Ah hah. That’s working, and it is definitely also a function of her copying and pasting. Thanks for your help! 🙂
