A line of plain text.
A paragraph.
Another line of text.


Now a question, Is this actually valid??
I recently recieved some templates of another designer and this was
scattered all throughout the pages.

I went through and put  around them BUT is it valid??? Or is it a
case of in Transitional DTD its ok but Strict DTD it is not??


Why not to check it? From HTML 4.01 Strict DTD:

Let's see DIV:


Ok, now let's look up what is %flow:



Checking %inline:


Just to make sure - %special:



Woohoo, A is here. Case closed.

I've been searching (not too much) but haven't find too much about this.
In this article [1], the author talks about *anonymous block boxes*:

So, is it valid to mix inline and block elements (as siblings) as long
as the inline elements are children of a block element?
  
Thanks in advance and excuse my english.

why not just wrap the paragraph around the
link as well? Though I think it should be perfectly valid to have both
inline elements and block elements as children of a div. For example,
what if I have an entire column of a page wrapped in a div, which is
common practice. Why would every child of that div have to be another
block element?

I think it is valid, but this will change in HTML5 if I'm correct. In 
its specs it says that a  for instance, can have either inline 
elements or block elements as its children, but not both 
(http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#block-level)

[WSG] an inline element (inside a block element) sibling of another block element

[Julián Landerreche]

Hi all,

Suppose:


   I deserve to be a block
   I don't deserve to be a block


The "a" element has a block parent ("div") as element.
But it also has a sibling element ("p"), which is a block element.

*Would you say it's valid?*

I've been searching (not too much) but haven't find too much about this.
In this article [1], the author talks about *anonymous block boxes*:

"For elements containing a mix of block-level
elements and inline-level elements (or plain text), so-called
anonymous block boxes are generated so that the principal block box
then contains nothing but block boxes." [1]

An his  example is:


   A line of plain text.
   A paragraph.
   Another line of text.


which is slightly different to the one I posted.

So, is it valid to mix inline and block elements (as siblings) as long as
the inline elements are children of a block element?

Thanks in advance and excuse my english.
