W3C validator: "Start tag a seen but an element of the same type was already open."
I’m validating my first website on the W3C validator.
I get this error:
Error: Start tag a seen but an element of the same type was already open. From line 13, column 2; to line 13, column 35

I see that you have not closed the a tag here.
<a href=""> is supposed to have </a>
There must be a previous tag which is not closed which is why you are getting this error.
