when creating a list with sub-list items, the html code generated does not pass
the w3c's html validator service:
http://validator.w3.org/file-upload.html
to reproduce:
create a simple html file with subordinate bullets. composer generated the
following for me:
<html>
<head>
<title>bad list test</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
Bad List Test<br>
<ul>
<li>Here's some list text...</li>
<ul>
<li>here's some more</li>
</ul>
</ul>
end.<br>
</body>
</html>
what should appear between the <body> tags is as follows:
<body>
Testing a list<br>
<ul>
<li>here's list text
<ul>
<li>here's more...<br>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
done.<br>
<br>
</body>

Please provide steps for how you produced this invalid list.
I can't confirm until I can reproduce the problem and the problem is about the
creation of the list.
Thanks!
(If we can't get steps to reproduce in the next couple weeks, I recommend
resolving this as invalid.)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a new composer window.
2. Hit the bullet button
3. Hit the "Apply or remove bulleted list" button
4. Type "testing" and hit enter
5. Hit tab to get a subordinate bullet
6. Type "testing" and hit save
7. Add "testing" to the title prompt
8. Save the page as "testing.html"
9. Click Tools->Validate HTML
10. Browse to the file and click Validate
You should see a validation error message like the following:
Error: element "UL" not allowed here; assuming missing "LI" start-tag
correction to the "Steps to reproduce"
ignore Step 2.
sorry.

Is this a duplicate bug of something Daniel found recently?

Trust me, 54479 is not a bug you want to have on your plate. This issue is
incredibly hard to solve. Just for the record, it took 5 **years** to DW to solve
it.
