When I say that, I mean that the 'p' in the current-day <p> tag does not mean 'paragraph.' I don't know what it means, but we can't think of it like that. It's more like a block than anything else. Which is to say if a header element is meant to be in a block, it's fine to put it in there. I wouldn't suggest it, as spiders organize content reading first by header elements, then paragraph elements, then strong/em elements, in much the same way Microsoft Word does (which annoys me to no end, because I never use the damn styles when I'm writing a report, and I hate that it's telling me what the structure of my paper is, because it's always wrong...but that's for later). Additionally, text-browsers organize in much the same way. To screw with that is to invite sadness. Now, as for what Drac pointed to in his code, I would not suggest doing it that way. I would suggest using <p> elements rather than <br /> elements, because <br /> elements are meant for single-line-breaks. When you use two in a row, you're using a <p>...</p> block, only without the cleanliness of code. <br /> elements are, in my opinion, best used for putting an image up top, and text directly below...and they should always be used in <p>...</p> blocks. ...So, uhh...Who wants pie?
