Yes, Item #6 below confirms my earlier thoughts about the optional self-closing tags. Start tags must have the following format: 1. The first character of a start tag must be a U+003C LESS-THAN SIGN character (<). 2. The next few characters of a start tag must be the element's tag name. 3. If there are to be any attributes in the next step, there must first be one or more space characters. 4. Then, the start tag may have a number of attributes, the syntax for which is described below. Attributes may be separated from each other by one or more space characters. 5. After the attributes, or after the tag name if there are no attributes, there may be one or more space characters. (Some attributes are required to be followed by a space. See the attributes section below.) 6. Then, if the element is one of the void elements, or if the element is a foreign element, then there may be a single U+002F SOLIDUS character (/). This character has no effect on void elements, but on foreign elements it marks the start tag as self-closing. 7. Finally, start tags must be closed by a U+003E GREATER-THAN SIGN character (>). -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
