This is something that has always bugged me for the sake of
consistency...
If I have a definition list such as:
<dl>
<dt>Term Goes Here</dt>
<dd>The long definition goes here</dd>
</dl>
Then, I have a definition list with two paragraphs such as:
<dl>
<dt>Term Goes Here</dt>
<dd>
<p>The long definition goes here</p>
<p>The second line goes here</p>
</dd>
</dl>
Now, these two lists are not consistent in the use of the <p> tag. The
first example does not use <p> but the second example does, if only to
break the paragraphs apart.
So, how do you handle these cases? Do you always use a <p> tag even if
there would only be one paragraph within the <dd> tag?
Or, do you just keep it brief and not use a <p> tag unless you have more
than one paragraph?
If I always use the <p> tag, then I know my CSS styling will be
consistent. Otherwise, I would need to style both my <dd> and <p> tags
the same to keep the same margins and padding.
Thanks
