Page Validation

I am trying to validate the html code for a page with a form thru W3C Validator and I get the following message for lines 122, 127, 129 & 131:

Line 122, Column 112: document type does not allow element "INPUT" here; missing one of "P", "H1", "H2", "H3", "H4", "H5", "H6", "PRE", "DIV", "ADDRESS" start-tag.
…TTP_USER_AGENT,AUTH_TYPE,REMOTE_USER">✉
The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.
One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "<span>", or "<font>").

I can give someone the url if they think they can help me correct this problem.
Help!

Use stuff like this:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
        <title></title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <form action="">
            <p><input type="text" name="test"></p>
        </form>
    </body>
</html>
