(sighs...) Apart from the fact that I've closed the ticket, producing XHTML and serving it as text/html makes no difference for the parser in the various web browsers as it's all treated as HTML. It may make it easier for your validator of choice to parse it but judging by the fact that the majority of pages with XHTML doctypes aren't even well- formed that doesn't seem to have had a major impact. I'd also question the any improvement in readability gained from added slashes to empty tags but I guess that's a matter of personal preference. Anyway consider the matter closed! :-) Andrew White --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
