It's amazing to see the Big Companies, with their Big Bucks, ignoring the standards... why do they do that? The HTML their tools create is really *awful*. > For this reason, I recommend the paired form, since that is completely > clear. It's clear to me, I don't need to make it clear to somebody who doesn't know HTML. And if you write: <p>dddddddddddd. dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd. <p>ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd ddddddd. ddddddddddddddddddddddddd. It's clear what the <p>'s are and you are also handling the problem of broken browsers (`</p><p>' == `<p>*2'). > > Of course, I do use omit tags myself - I almost always omit </li> on short > lists, and </td> in tables.
