You mean the <br> tag, right? There's always going to be a single line break as far as I know, but for XHTML (which is the new standard) you type it as <br />. One of the big things about XHTML is closing your tags, no lazy coding. <p> better be closed with </p> etc, but with tags like <br> <hr> and such, there is no closing tag to be enforced, so those unclosed tags get the change of having the space and a slash. <br /> <hr />, and so on.
There's a good article explaining the differences between HTML and XHTML on the WDVL site if you want to take a look. It explains it quite well: http://www.wdvl.com/Authoring/Languages/XML/XHTML/dif.html Hope that helps, Ali ----- Original Message ----- From: "sherry young" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 10:47 AM Subject: [wdvltalk] RE: Site critique - Chamber of Commerce > Do you think there's a list on the w3c site of deprecated tags?
