SPAN is not a block element, therefore cannot be used to contain block 
elements like list items. Also, you can only follow an opening list tag 
with an opening list item tag - everything inside a list has to be 
inside a list item tag.

Your JS should be able to collapse the entire list without needing the 
span ...
