Issue Fixed

Block-level elements like <ul> and <ol> cannot be inside <p> tags per HTML5 specification. The fix was to close the <p> tag before the list and continue after if needed.

Before:

<p>
    Some text introducing a list:
    <ul>
        <li>Item 1</li>
        <li>Item 2</li>
    </ul>
</p>

After:

<p>Some text introducing a list:</p>
<ul>
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
</ul>

Files Fixed by Unit

Sparks U1: 9 files across L3, L4, L5, L6, L7
Sparks U2: 5 files across L1, L2, L3, L4
Sparks U3: 1 file (L4)
Sparks U4: 1 file (L2)

All issues flagged in the WCAG 2.0 accessibility check have been resolved.

...

Fixed all 16 files. The issue was <ul> and <ol> elements inside <p> tags, which is invalid HTML5. Moved the lists outside the paragraph tags while preserving the content structure. (commit a45f05a)
