Is it correct to put a 'p' inside an 'a'?

Question

I just watched this video about Bootstrap, and I saw a p inside an a. I would like to know if it is correct semantically.

Answer 1

This is allowed (since HTML5, where the a element has a transparent content model) if

• the a element is valid at this position, and
• the p element would be valid at a’s position, too.
