Yes, so HTML5 will have rules to say whether the / there is part of the attribute value or part of the tag, itneeds that anyway. I don't much mind what the answer is. It must do this in any case. If it is <a href="/folder/" > the the element is opened and hopefully closed later so the question of teh meaning of /> doesn't arise. If it is parsed as <a href="/folder" /> then surely it should generate an empty element, David ________________________________________________________________________ The Numerical Algorithms Group Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales with company number 1249803.
