A start tag occurs after the head element is closed - but before the body element is opened. +

The & character must + be the first character of a reference: +

A < (U+003C LESS-THAN + SIGN) character which is not part of any markup appears + in the input stream.

The < character as a data character must + be escaped as: +

<lt;

An & (U+0026 + AMPERSAND) character immediately + followed by a # (U+0023 + NUMBER SIGN) character which + is not part of any reference appears in the input stream. + The document is non-conforming.

The string &#x or &#X which + is not part of any reference appears in the input stream. + The document is non-conforming.

The string &#x or &#X must + be the first three characters of a hexadecimal reference: +

In the HTML syntax, XML declaration is not necessary.

HTML5 Parse Errors in Tree Construction Stage

+ + + The $0 element cannot be + inserted between head and body elements. + +

A start tag appears after the head element is closed + but before the body element is opened. + The document is non-conforming.

+ + + A DOCTYPE appears after any + element or data character has been seen. + +

A DOCTYPE appears after any element or data character + has been seen. The document is non-conforming.

The DOCTYPE must be placed before any + tag, reference, or data character. Only white space characters + and comments can be inserted before the DOCTYPE.

+
+
+ + + Anchor cannot be nested. + +

HTML a elements cannot be nested. + The document is non-conforming.

+ +

In the HTML syntax, a start tag of the a + implies the end tag of any opening a element.

+
+
+ + + Tag <$0> + is not allowed in a body element. + +

The start or end tag of an element, which + cannot be a descendant of body element, appears + in the input stream while the body element has been opened. + The document is non-conforming.

+
+
+ + + Start tag <head> + is not allowed in the head element. + +

There is a start tag <head> in the + <head> element. The document is non-conforming.

+ +

In an HTML document there must not be more than + one head element, therefore no more than one + start tag <head> can appear in the input stream.

+
+
+ + + Tag <$0> + is not allowed in a table element. + +

The start or end tag of an element, which + cannot be a child of table element, appears + in the input stream while the table element has been opened + but no other element has been opened. The document is non-conforming.

+ +

In table, only table related elements + are allowed; any other element must be contained in + td or th element to form + a part of the table, or caption element to create + a table caption.

+
+ + + Data character is not allowed in + table. + +

A data character appears in table. The document + is non-conforming.

Start tag of a tr element, which is not + optional, is missing. The document is non-conforming.

In a table section, a <tr> start tag + must occur before any <td> or + <th> start tag. Though the HTML5 parser + implies the <tr> start tag before + these start tags, it must be explicitly specified.

The document does not start with a DOCTYPE. + The document is non-conforming.

An HTML document must start by a DOCTYPE: +

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
+

Only white space characters and comments are allowed + before the DOCTYPE.

+
+ + + Element $0 is not + closed. + +

End tag of an element is not found before, for example, + an end tag of another element appears or + the end of the document. The document is non-conforming.

+
+
+ + + This document is written in an old version of + HTML. + +

The document contains a DOCTYPE declaration + that is different from HTML5 DOCTYPE (i.e. <!DOCTYPE + HTML>). The document is non-conforming.

The document might or might not be conformant to + some version of HTML. However, conformance to any HTML + specification other than HTML5 provides for no practical + convenience, since Web borwsers will parse any + HTML document (roughly) as defined in HTML5.

Attribute Value Errors

The specified link type cannot be used for the element. + The document is non-conforming.

+ +

Link types are associated with limited set of elements. + They cannot be used with other elements.

+
+
+ + + The link type $0 + is non-conforming. + +

The specified link type is non-conforming. The entire document + is non-conforming.

+
+ + + This browsing context name is reserved. + +

The specified browsing context name is reserved. + The document is non-conforming.

+ +

Names of browsing contexts starting with _ + (U+005F LOW LINE) + are reserved so that it must not be used.

+ +

Old version of HTML, non-HTML markup languages, and + Web browsers define or implements special reserved + browsing context names _blank, + _main, and _replace. + However, they are not conforming attribute values.

Attribute Value Warnings

URI (or IRI) Warnings

Dot-segment (. or ..) should + not occur in an absolute reference.

+ +

In relative references, dot-segments are used to represent + the current (.) or the parent (..) + hierarchy of the path. Though they are also allowed + in absolute references, it should be resolved to the + canonical form before it has been published.
