> 
> Aaron and I discussed this briefly at the training seminar, 
> but I'd like to get a sense of what other developers are 
> doing to get around the quirks of generating xhtml with 
> xquery (rather than a java servlet/jsp based website which 
> pulls records from MarkLogic via XDBC/XCC.
> 
> One such quirk: Childless elements with no internal nodes and 
> an explicit closing tag are automatically folded into 
> elements with no closing tag.  <div></div>, which is valid 
> xhtml, will become <div /> after being processed by MarkLogic 
> (breaks visual representation).  Some better examples are 
> <script ...></script> and <textarea></textarea>, which are 
> expected to contain no internal nodes in xhtml.
> 
> I've taken to writing things like
> 
> <script ... >{" "}</script>
> 
> or
> 
> <textarea>&nbsp;</textarea>
