The errors you are encountering indicate issues with the structure of your HTML document. Let's break down each error message and what it means:

  1. Error: Stray end tag head.

    • This error means that you have a closing </head> tag that does not have a corresponding opening <head> tag. It suggests that the structure of your HTML document is incorrect, likely because you have already closed the head section or there is an extra </head> tag present.
  2. Error: Start tag body seen but an element of the same type was already open.

    • This error occurs when you attempt to open the <body> tag while there is already a <body> tag that has not been closed. HTML should have only one <body> tag in a complete document, and if it is opened again without first being closed, this error will arise.
  3. Error: Stray start tag div.

    • A "stray start tag" error means that an opening tag (in this case, <div>) is present in the document without a corresponding opening section (or it is outside the valid structure). Considering your previous errors, this <div> tag is appearing when the HTML document structure is already broken due to the earlier issues.
  4. Fatal Error: Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.

    • This error is a result of the document being too malformed for the parser to continue. Since multiple structural problems were detected, the parser cannot produce a valid output. Further tags and content following these errors will not be processed.

How to Fix These Errors:

To resolve the errors:

  • Ensure that your HTML structure is correct. A standard HTML document should look something like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Your Title</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Your Content</h1>
    <div>Your div content</div>
</body>
</html>
  • Check for duplicate tags. Make sure you do not have multiple <head> or <body> segments.
  • Close any unclosed tags before opening a new one of the same type.
  • Ensure that all tags are properly nested and there are no stray (unmatched) tags.

By following these guidelines, your HTML structure should be corrected, and the error messages should be resolved.
