Stupid html question
What's the difference between <br> and <br />? I've just started noticing the 'br slash' version, and was wondering what it's for.
Pixy answers:*
The <br /> version is XHTML compliant, which means that it is also valid XML and can be parsed by XML parsers. There is a certain value to this, but I just dumped a plate of lasagne in my lap, so I have to go.
* It's good to be the Pixy.

I didn't even think about how those two commands would be interpreted. Thanks for leaving the original post up there. People were starting to forget that I'm often an idiot. LOL
Dang, and now I've removed it. (Actually, I put it back into "Draft".)
So now you're referring to a post people can't see - I guess that serves that same purpose!
LOL!

Posted by: Ted at September 12, 2003 04:54 PMYeah, that's where I usually lose my posts.

Posted by: Susie at September 12, 2003 05:19 PMThis is sad. The only thing I understood in Pixy's answer was the part about dumping lasagne in his lap.
I am sooo computer-stupid.
Hey, maybe if I started dumping pasta in my own lap, I could become as adept as he is?
(I'll try anything at this point.)
;-)
