<br /> works exactly the same as <br>

you'll find the same thing in all of the <img tags as well.

did y'all know that in HTML 4.0 the <font> tag is considered deprecated (obsolete).

I'm currently working on making a version of 3.4 XHTML(transitional) compliant. got default and forum.asp compliant but its topic.asp that's proving tricky at the moment. I need to take a good look at the way the message text is formatted by the parsing engine in inc_common_functions.asp.
