a tag closing before it should - chiffony279547 - 07-24-2023
Below is a syntax html i have written for my project. I don't think anything is wrong with my code. however browser compiles it differently.
My code:
<!-- begin snippet: js hide: false console: true babel: false -->
<!-- language: lang-html -->
<a href="#" class="m-news">
<div class="mn-title">
</div>
<div class="mn-content">
</div>
<div class="news-footer">
<a href="#"></a>
</div>
</a>
<!-- end snippet -->
How browser is compiling it:
<a href="#" class="m-news"><div class="mn-title"></div><div class="mn-content"></div></a><div class="news-footer"><a href="#" class="m-news"></a></div>
Can anyone tell me why is this happening? I did the removing js, removing css,a nd all other possible tests.i tested in opera internet explorer chrome .

It is forbidden to nest `<a>` elements.
The second `<a>` start tag is ignored, and the first `</a>` end tag, therefore, closes the first `<a>`.
If you had [used a validator](
