    The Ultimate proof that humans are sheep :

    proof = <br />

    There it is in plain sight.
    Full proof that you will do anything you are told no matter how stupid it is.


    Good luck.

          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.

                          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.

                                  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.
