People Unite! Stop this bullshit! - GoFuckYourself.com

Get real, we all need to unite to stop this bullshit with end tags.

This stupid shit here :

<br />

<input ... />

<img ... />

Those tags were never meant to have a end tag because they don't wrap any data.

Not only is it stupid but it violates w3.org standards for end tags.

8 The HTML syntax ? HTML5

Quote:

8.1.2.2 End tags

End tags must have the following format:

The first character of an end tag must be a "<" (U+003C) character.
The second character of an end tag must be a "/" (U+002F) character.
The next few characters of an end tag must be the element's tag name.
After the tag name, there may be one or more space characters.
Finally, end tags must be closed by a ">" (U+003E) character.

So why don't we stand up against being told to violate standards and do dumb shit that does nothing?

You're easily outraged ...

blackmonsters · 05-14-2015, 08:23 AM

OK, I'm wrong.

You can put that there in a start tag without violating standards.

8.1.2.1 Start tags

Start tags must have the following format:

The first character of a start tag must be a "<" (U+003C) character.
The next few characters of a start tag must be the element's tag name.
If there are to be any attributes in the next step, there must first be one or more space characters.
Then, the start tag may have a number of attributes, the syntax for which is described below. Attributes must be separated from each other by one or more space characters.
After the attributes, or after the tag name if there are no attributes, there may be one or more space characters. (Some attributes are required to be followed by a space. See the attributes section below.)
Then, if the element is one of the void elements, or if the element is a foreign element, then there may be a single "/" (U+002F) character. This character has no effect on void elements, but on foreign elements it marks the start tag as self-closing.
Finally, start tags must be closed by a ">" (U+003E) character.
