Its just that I noticed that the definition of CDATA in the HTML 3.2 spec states that if either </STYLE> or the closing tag of its container comes along it marks the end of the CDATA block... I was wondering how true to nature that was, and how "REQUIRED" an end tag was... I notice nothing different between the DTD definitions of <P> and <H1> to warrant the difference in handling their end tags... the only note is in the HTML specification stating that the closing TAG of the <P> should be easy to imply by the parser ... I feel that the closing tags to almost every thing should be easy to imply... but may not always be clear to the author... :)
