Validate the following document: http://milianw.de/misc/empty_tags.html The spec says: Start tag: required, End tag: forbidden An end tag is something like "</a>" or similar. I can't find anything which says that the above is not valid html 4.01. > Whether it matters is > a different question - most browsers seem to handle them fine when fed > "HTML4" and there some benefits in having the documents be kind-of > parsable as poor man's XML even if they don't fully conform to XHTML > specifications. Yes! I think it's a great to be able to use a simple xml parser for html documents (it is far easier). -- Milian Wolff http://milianw.de _______________________________________________ Markdown-Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/markdown-discuss
