Thanks everybody for your inputs, Its really well appreciated :) and good at the same time because this is a kind of subject that it's not about HAML but to helps us learn what HAML does and how a proper document should be formatted. Now I can see the point of required, after what Norman Clarke said. But I also agree with Eric in leaving the self closing because it looks better organized, actually I think that too because the problem in this case to leave opened tags would be the indentation, HAML it's easy for me to understand because of the indentation so that's why I know when a tag is closed but how would you supposed to know if you have something like this:
<input type='text' value='username'> <label> password:</label> <a href='/'> Forgot your password?</a> <input type='text' value='password'> that in my point of view would generated something like this: <input type='text' value='username'> <label> password:</label> <a href='/'> Forgot your password?</a> <input type='text' value='password'> so on a plain document how would you know when it is finished or not? So the thing is that I agree with both sides, but visually speaking this is far unorganised than self closing I think. Obviously I'm not here to criticise HTML5, because I really think this will be a revolution (its already is) and I really like, I know this isn't the right place to discuss about it so I will leave for another context. But it was very good to receive lots of information from you. I can understand much better now :) Thanks again -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Haml" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
