This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
In "4.4.11 Usage summary", the example on <nav> contains three <p> elements, each containing only one <a> element: <nav> <p><a href="/">Home</a> <p><a href="/biog.html">Bio</a> <p><a href="/discog.html">Discog</a> </nav> I think this violates the recommendation in "4.4.4 The |nav| element": "In cases where the content of a |nav <http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/sections.html#the-nav-element>| element represents a list of items, use list markup to aid understanding and navigation." If the example is supposed to present breadcrumb navigation (which might be regarded as something else than a list), then this should be clarified. Otherwise, please change the example to the following: <nav> <ul> <li><a href="/">Home</a> <li><a href="/biog.html">Bio</a> <li><a href="/discog.html">Discog</a> </ul> </nav>
