Should ol/ul be inside or outside?

Question

Which is standard compliant between these two?

Text text text ...
    

        
First element
    
         


        

Answer 1

The second. The first is invalid.

• A paragraph cannot contain a list.
• A list cannot contain a paragraph unless that paragraph is contained entirely within a single list item.

A browser will handle it like so:

first element



other textetxet
