It uses a massive sequence of generic tags for what is clearly a structured directory/list of locations, followed by a massive sequence of tags that likely represent the text content of the directory, rather than using proper tags before the main content (the map and directory), and then descends into a chaotic sequence of tags that do not correspond to the visual flow of the directory columns. tags for what is clearly a structured directory/list of locations, followed by a massive sequence of tags that likely represent the text content of the directory, rather than using proper tags before the main content (the map and directory), and then descends into a chaotic sequence of tags that do not correspond to the visual flow of the directory columns.; + 2 warning(s) |
