428: <p>It is possible for paragraphs to overlap when using certain

431:
432: <pre><section>
433: <h1>My Cats</h1>
434: You can play with my cat simulator.
435: <object data="cats.sim">
436: To see the cat simulator, use one of the following links:
437: <ul>
438: <li><a href="cats.sim">Download simulator file</a>
439: <li><a href="http://sims.example.com/watch?v=LYds5xY4INU">Use online simulator</a>
440: </ul>
441: Alternatively, upgrade to the Mellblom Browser.
442: </object>
443: I'm quite proud of it.
444: </section></pre>
445:
446: <p>There are five paragraphs:</p>
447:
448: <ol class="brief"><li>The paragraph that says "You can play with my cat
449: simulator. <i title="">object</i> I'm quite proud of it.", where
450: <i title="">object</i> is the <code><a href="text-level-semantics.html#the-object-element">object</a></code> element.</li>
451:
452: <li>The paragraph that says "To see the cat simulator, use one of
453: the following links:".</li>
454:
455: <li>The paragraph that says "Download simulator file".</li>
456:
457: <li>The paragraph that says "Use online simulator".</li>
458:
459: <li>The paragraph that says "Alternatively, upgrade to the Mellblom Browser.".</li>
460:
461: </ol><p>The first paragraph is overlapped by the other four. A user
462: agent that supports the "cats.sim" resource will only show the
463: first one, but a user agent that shows the fallback will
464: confusingly show the first sentence of the first paragraph as
465: if it was in the same paragraph as the second one, and will show
466: the last paragraph as if it was at the start of the second sentence
467: of the first paragraph.</p>
468:
469: <p>To avoid this confusion, explicit <code><a href="semantics.html#the-p-element">p</a></code> elements can be
