- The output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> <html> <head> <title>bug test</title> </head> <body> <div /> </body> </html>
- The standards:
Empty-element tags MAY be used for any element which has no content,
> whether or not it is declared using the keyword EMPTY. > For interoperability, the empty-element tag SHOULD be used, and > SHOULD only be used, for elements which are declared EMPTY. (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-starttags)
C.3. Element Minimization and Empty Element Content
Given an empty instance of an element whose content model
> is not EMPTY (for example, an empty title or paragraph) do > not use the minimized form (e.g. use <p> </p> and not <p />). (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#guidelines)
- The patch:
Elements like <p> or <div> aren't declared as EMPTY in the XHTML DTD.
According to XML and XHTML standards, the <div></div> form should be used instead of <div/>. Both are XML (and XHTML) valid, but the second leads to strange problems with some browsers (guess who --- IE).
Hope this helps, Marco
