Default validation code errors

While attempting to validate code, I came up with these errors. Can anyone explain these validation errors?

# Line 119, Column 4: end tag for "ul" which is not finished.





Most likely, you nested tags and closed them in the wrong order. For example

...

is not acceptable, as must be closed before

. Acceptable nesting is:

...



Another possibility is that you used an element which requires a child element that you did not include. Hence the parent element is "not finished", not complete. For instance, in HTML the element must contain a child element, lists (ul, ol, dl) require list items (li, or dt, dd), and so on.<br /> # Error Line 134, Column 5: end tag for "ul" which is not finished.<br /> <br /> </ul><br /> <br /> ✉<br /> <br /> Most likely, you nested tags and closed them in the wrong order.
