No, I understood the question to be a <p> containing a <chapter>.
Not sure how you can say that a <p> crosses a <chapter> boundary since
in traditional printing you would have an end to the <p> just before the
end of the <chapter> and then a new <chapter> followed by a new <p>. Not
sure how else it would be represented in print.
Sorry, are we just completely missing each other?
