I'd say to lookup information for what can go where one should look at the corresponding DTD, in this case: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/sgml/dtd.html which says: <!ELEMENT BODY O O (%block;|SCRIPT)+ +(INS|DEL) -- document body --> (%block;|SCRIPT)+ +(INS|DEL) lists allowed elements. Plus sign at the end means that BODY must contain at least one block level or SCRIPT element. %block; entity expands to: <!ENTITY % block "P | %heading; | %list; | %preformatted; | DL | DIV | NOSCRIPT | BLOCKQUOTE | FORM | HR | TABLE | FIELDSET | ADDRESS"> %heading;: <!ENTITY % heading "H1|H2|H3|H4|H5|H6"> %list;:<!ENTITY % list "UL | OL"> %preformatted; <!ENTITY % preformatted "PRE"> Add there INS and DEL which may occur (plus sign in front) and you have list what is allowed in BODY.
