Sorry dude, but that product actually does something.

This shit "/>" doesn't do anything .

:2 cents:

aww :) so many people thinking differently.. and by the picture title.. literally lol

I don't get it..

Are you saying people use <br /> rather than </br>?

I actually used to and learnt </br> but I think it was on wordpress or on some HTML validator site they said it should be <br />.
I still use </br> but sometimes the other. Maybe I am sheep.

If you are talking about something else entirely and I missed the point, igore me, carry on :)

<br> works fine.

People use other conventions because that's how they learned syntax. Hardly a "sheep" issue. It's a learning/syntax issue.

Fixed it for ya!

So question why did someone teach </b>r in the first place if just <br> works?

Tiiiiiiiight :thumbsup:1orglaugh

I just explained why. Coding etiquette. Easier to keep in form. Also less confusing for someone just learning if all tags end with a slash. It works either way.

A better question would be, why do so many retards use page breaks improperly to begin with?

It actually doesn't. Self-closing tags need the / in the tag to signify that they are self-closing. Your HTML may "work" but it doesn't validate, which breaks some things that follow the appropriate spec. Definitely not a style choice -- one is right, and the other is wrong.

There we have it. Programmers real definition.

Though for the common man, it still works.

True enough! For 99% of purposes, <br> is equivalent to <br />. You are so unlikely to run into a case where it isn't, that it doesn't matter. BUT WHEN YOU DO ... you'll be glad you did it "right". Or you'll use find+replace, lol. :thumbsup

<br /> is for xhtml
