Does anyone know what is causing this error?
Many thanks in advance

Yes actually those were some where you could pick up some excellent ideas about html and css...
But like I said there is know way to tell why your span isn't working as all you give is the html and we have no idea what it is doing nor what it is supposed to do, is it supposed to make all the text green, 40px, blink, etc., spans do have some default settings for each browsers, some act like it's a div and give it some padding or margin, etc. so w/o more info it's hard to give you an answer...

Try using a div.figure for some reason they don't want a in a span...
I know what the difference is, just didn't want to explain it at the time...

It's quite simple really.
is a block element.... which can contain other block elements. like , or inline elements.
is an inline element, which cannot contain block elements.
