[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBIDE-2396) BR tag has invalid format

[Denis Maliarevich (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBIDE-2396?page=all ]

Denis Maliarevich resolved JBIDE-2396.
--------------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 3.0.0.alpha
       Resolution: Done
         Assignee: Tatyana Romanovich  (was: Denis Maliarevich)

According to jsp specification jsp page does not have to have empty tags formatted with mandatory end tags.

I checked html files: by default empty tags have no end tags,
in xhtml: empty tags do have end tags,
in jsp: by default empty tags have no end tags.

So this bug has no meaning.

Specification notes listed below.

HTML 4.01 Specification says:
"Some HTML element types have no content. For example, the line break element BR has no content; its only role is to terminate a line of text. Such empty elements never have end tags. "

XHTML 1 Specification says:
"Empty elements must either have an end tag or the start tag must end with />. For instance, <br/> or <hr></hr>."

JSP 2.1 Specification says:
"A traditional application domain of the JSP technology is HTML content. The JSP specification supports well this use through a syntax that is friendly to HTML and XML although it is not HTML-specific; for instance, HTML comments are treated no differently than other HTML content. The JSP Standard Tag Library has specific support for HTML though some specific custom actions."
