I’d thought that it would be more semantically correct to put the inside of a rather than a . Both are block tags which is why it’s not breaking validation, but to me should always be used for text data, rather than images or other objects such as video?

That’s how I do things, anyway.

Hi jd,

The error you mention is a JavaScript error message. Since my snippet above doesn’t have any JavaScript in it, this makes me think that your page has an error that’s perhaps being exposed by the inclusion of the snippet.
