How can that be ? These tags are still "there" […], even when you omit them: "A user agent must ensure that rendering is unchanged by the presence or absence of start tags and end tags when the HTML DTD indicates that these are optional" [1] (best spec ref I could find ad hoc). > Or do you have any detailed DTD editing documentations, references, … I > could refer to, so I would have all the knowledge to fully understand the > HTML 4.01 DTD ? Maybe it's tutorials like W3Schools' DTD section that can help in that regard. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/conform.html#h-4.1 [2] http://www.w3schools.com/dtd/ -- Jens Meiert http://meiert.com/en/
