[CS-FSLUG] Which HTML editor

HTML had a few tags that were, under the specfication, allowed to be "open"
- the BR tag being one of them. In XML, that won't fly: every tag has to be
closed. You can, however - as Nathan pointed out - close the tag as simply:
<BR/>.

So, anyways, I'm not sure I'd deduct points from the editor for that...
Especially if you like the program otherwise. You could probably turn
tag-completion off, anyways?
