Re: validator validating non valid page

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. When the bug was initially posted to bugzilla ( 
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197226 )it was pointed out that 
based on appendic C to the XHTML guidelines http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#C_3 
it is not valid.
Here is the text:

C.3. Element Minimization and Empty Element Content

Given an empty instance of an element whose content model is not EMPTY (for 
example, an empty title or paragraph) do not use the minimized form (e.g. 
use <p> </p> and not <p />).
