Just fyi ..the reason "older" browsers will support:
<tagname attribute="value" />
and not
<tagname attribute="value"/>
is because in the first instance, the old browsers will simply interpret "/"
as another attribute that they cannot understand, and therefore skip it.
On a related note, all browsers will display XHTML with no problems (ok,
maybe not mosaic 1.0). Where they will have a problem is with the CSS that
you use along with it. CSS support is sketchy in any NS4.x and lower.

Subject: RE: [Supported Browsers] cvs commit:
jakarta-struts/src/share/org /apache/struts/taglib/html
JavascriptValidatorTag.java
I think someone just submitted a patch for xhmtl compliant taglibs.
However, a brief glance at the patch shows they did this:
<input type="text" name="blah"/>
instead of the w3.org recommended:
<input type="text" name="blah" /> (note the space)
I can only assume w3 recommends the space because some browsers don't like
the other way.
Opera deals with xhtml just fine. It's my primary browser.
