Multiple Paragraphs in an HTML List Item

Can Multiple Paragraphs Be Included in a List Item?

Yes. You can include multiple paragraphs in a single list item, because "li" is a flow type element, which can have block elements and inline elements. The tutorial example below shows you how a list item can have two paragraphs:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
 <head>
  <title>Lists with Block Items</title>
 </head>
 <body>
