uhoh, I think perhaps my wording might have confused you. It apparently
will NOT allowed in the future, but for now, such markup Validates in
Strict XHTML and HTML4.
Hope that clarifies.
btw, that different browsers render it differently is of course no
surprise. This is, at least in part, due to differing default css
values in each browser.

OK thanks.
I assumed it was a no no as it does not make sense but I have learnt
that making sense is not always a W3C thing :)
In the templates that I recieved, the code looked like:
<div>
jhd jhd hwd wqdkh <br /><br />
<p>khdj jwhd jhwqdj hwd</p>
</div>
This actually does not view the same in every browser. In FF it showed
up as a seperate paragraph but in IE it did not, it just broke the
paragraph to the next line.
I noted it hear on my blog

It appears that it is a no-no, or at least will become so.
Does that mean you should go back and redo all your sites? Nope.
AFAIK, every browser will handle this just fine, at least for the
foreseeable future.
