HTML Tags

Unread post by Ivan R. Lanin »

I've just downloaded the trial version and I found it very great. I'm suggesting to management to buy H&M.

I look on the HTML source code generated by H&M and here's some suggestions:
- change <b> to <strong> and <i> to <em> (according to HTML 4 standard)
- close <br>, <img>, and <hr> tag to <br />, <img />, and <hr /> (according to XHTML compliance)
- allow user to use self defined style (separate css file), not the in-line style.

That's all for now. Hope I'm not too much asking :D

Regards, IRL.

I certainly agree whole-heartedly with the standardised xhtml self closing tags such as <br />.

But with regards to the other html tags, I would rather wait, and see a full implementation of cascading style sheets using primarily <div> and <span> for virtually all formatting.

...also, why are there two <br> tags inserted just before the topic text? Since WinHelp does not insert spaces between the title and the topic text, why is it the default for HTML rendered topics to do so?
(I always take these out, which gets irritating after a while).
