I've got some html that looks like this:
<ol>
<div>
<li>one</li>
</div>
<div>
<li>two</li>
</div>
<div>
<li>three</li>
</div>
</ol>
Which looks like this in Chrome/Firefox: 1. one 2. two 3. three
But looks like this in IE: 1. one 1. two 1. three
If I change the code so that the li element is the parent of the div element instead of the other way around (so that all the li elements are siblings) IE renders it correctly. Anyone know what causes this or if this is the intended working behavior of IE? Furthermore is one way technically more correct than the other?
<div><li></li></div> VS. <li><div></div></li>
Thanks, David
