Correct me if I'm wrong... but isn't "<td />" not XHTML valid? Should it' just be "<td></td>"... AFAIK the XHTML rule (when converting from regular HTML) is this: If it doesn't have a corresponding closing tag: br, meta, link; then it needs to have the "/>" ending syntax. Otherwise, just make sure to include both the starting and ending tags in the code.

There are more tags than the ones listed that can use the short empty form but you are correct, according to the DTD for both XHTML 1.0 transitional and strict, the td tag should not use the short empty form; rather it should use <td></td>.

There are also a few more rules for converting, but this is one of the main ones :)
