These errors indicate that there are issues in your HTML document that violate the structure required by proper HTML syntax. Here's a breakdown of each error message:
-
Stray end tag head.:
- This error means that there is a closing
</head>
tag that doesn't have a corresponding opening<head>
tag or that it appears in the wrong place in your document. In a valid HTML document,<head>
should only appear once, and it should be closed before the document transitions to the<body>
section.
- This error means that there is a closing
-
Start tag body seen but an element of the same type was already open.:
- This error indicates that the
<body>
tag was found while there was already an open<body>
tag. In a well-formed HTML document, you can only have one<body>
tag, and it must be properly closed before you open another.
- This error indicates that the
-
Stray start tag div.:
- This error suggests that there is a
<div>
tag that appears outside of its expected context. In this case, it likely means that you have placed a<div>
element after the closing</html>
tag, which is not allowed. The<html>
tag must be the last tag in the document.
- This error suggests that there is a
-
Fatal Error: Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.:
- This error indicates that the HTML parser encountered a critical error that prevents it from continuing to check for additional errors. Because of the previous errors, the parser has become confused and cannot reliably identify further issues in the code.
How to Fix the Errors:
To resolve these issues, you'll need to:
- Check your
<head>
section to ensure it opens with<head>
and closes with</head>
, and that it appears only once. - Ensure you have a single
<body>
tag, which opens after the closing of the<head>
and closes before you hit the closing</html>
tag. - Make sure all tags are properly nested and that the
<div>
is placed within the<body>
and before the closing</html>
. - Properly close all tags in the correct order following HTML standards.
Here's an example of a valid basic HTML structure:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Your Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World</h1>
<div>Your content here</div>
</body>
</html>
Make sure your document's structure resembles the example above while fixing any improper placements or stray tags.
