Hello,In http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/, at http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#C_2, we read:
Include a space before the trailing / and > of empty elements, e.g. <br />, <hr /> and <img src="karen.jpg" alt="Karen" />. Later, at http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.6, we see: CORRECT: terminated empty elements <br/><hr/> These are inconsistent, and perhaps in error. Sincerely, Dave Land LiveWorld, Inc.
