 * Ok so I’m working on
 * [http://corefx.net/wordpress/index.php/contact](http://corefx.net/wordpress/index.php/contact)
 * and when i check out the validation
    [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcorefx.net%2Fwordpress%2Findex.php%2Fcontact](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcorefx.net%2Fwordpress%2Findex.php%2Fcontact)
 * it tells me I have these errors…. when in fact I dont. It’s telling me i’ve opened
   a p tag and close a p tag… but there aren’t any p tags in the code.. i’m not 
   completely sure why it would do this? Any ideas?

 * But in fact, you do 😉
 * WP adds the p tags. Try inserting a blank line in your post(s) where it says 
   there is no closing tag.

 * Huh? You’ve got plenty of `<p>` tags. And you’ve got them nested incorrectly 
   and the `</form>` closing tag is in the wrong place, which is causing the validation
   errors. I’ve pastebinned a version of your code that’s valid:
