Your posted code looks perhaps OK but really it's impossible to comment,
your question gives no indication of the intended criteria for grouping
or not grouping elements, so the only indication of the intended
grouping is your stylesheet and so all we can say is that that does what
it does, can't say if it does what it was intended to do as the
intention isn't clear.
