Because, in an HTML document, an XHTML style img tag unambiguously means "An image element followed by a greater than sign".

Sorry to be dense, I'm trying to grasp this concept. Does (at least strictly speaking) the inclusion of a forward slash within the tag of any element prevent the tag in question from being terminated? I guess my question is how a tag that has not been terminated (with ">") can be said to be "followed by" anything at all?

And further:

... because most browsers don't support <img /> correctly in HTML documents

How is <img /> (or presumably <br />) correctly supported? And which browsers do correctly support it?

Thanks,
