There is a typo (HMTL) intstead of HTML in some error messages, such as this one: *Line 12, Column 87*: NET-enabling start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES. …e="10" name="diameter" id="diameter" */*></p> The sequence <FOO /> can be interpreted in at least two different ways, depending on the DOCTYPE of the document. For HMTL 4.01 Strict, the '/' terminates the tag <FOO (with an implied '>'). However, since many browsers don't interpret it this way, even in the presence of an HMTL 4.01 Strict DOCTYPE, it is best to avoid it completely in pure HTML documents and reserve its use solely for those written in XHTML.
