> - 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
