Description:
------------
The HTML markup is not well-formed. For example, on the page http://http://php.net/reserved.constants#constant.php-version-id, in the list of constants, we open a `dt`, we open a `dd`, we close a `dd`, and we close the `dt`. The `dt` closing tags are not in the right place, they should be place before the `dd` opening tag.

Expected result:
----------------
  <dt id="constant.php-version-id">
   <span class="term">
    <strong><code>PHP_VERSION_ID</code></strong>
    (<a href="language.types.integer.php" class="link">entier</a>)
   </span>
  </dt>

  <dd>
   <span class="simpara">
    La version courante de PHP sous la forme d&#039;un
    entier, utile pour la comparaison de versions
    (i.e., int(50207) depuis la version &quot;5.2.7-extra&quot;).
    Disponible depuis PHP 5.2.7.
   </span>
  </dd>

Actual result:
--------------
  <dt id="constant.php-version-id">
   <span class="term">
    <strong><code>PHP_VERSION_ID</code></strong>
    (<a href="language.types.integer.php" class="link">entier</a>)
   </span>
   <dd>

    <span class="simpara">
     La version courante de PHP sous la forme d&#039;un
     entier, utile pour la comparaison de versions
     (i.e., int(50207) depuis la version &quot;5.2.7-extra&quot;).
     Disponible depuis PHP 5.2.7.
    </span>
   </dd>

  </dt>

The cited example (dd within dt) should be a small, simple fix in phd.

However, there is a wider problem of "malformed" HTML markup being generated; for example we wrap many, many block-level elements in <p> tags because we use lots of <para> in DocBook.  An example of this is surrounding the <dl> cited in the bug report.

The fix for this bug has been committed. Since the websites are not directly
updated from the repository, the fix might need some time to spread
across the globe to all mirror sites, including PHP.net itself.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP.net better.

Fixing <p> wrapping other block level tags would have to be a structural change to PhD. Not something that is going to happen any time soon considering development of PhD has been very minimal in the past 18 months :)
