Something that I recently noticed in IE6 (I don't know whether it is true 
for other browsers or versions of IE) is that it renders <br/> and <br></br> 
differently. With the <br/> version, which is what most people use when they 
write static code (some people use <br>, but with xhtml you are required to 
close all tags), IE6 simply breaks to the next line like it is supposed to. 
However, with <br></br>, which is what is sometimes generated by certain 
server-side code (for example, ASP.NET/VB.NET's HtmlGenericControl("br") 
class renders <br></br>), an extra blank line is rendered. IE6 appears to be 
interpreting <br></br> as <br/><br/>, but <br/> and <br></br> are supposed 
to be the same thing (<br/> is just the self closing syntax of <br></br>), 
so there shouldn't be a difference in how the browser renders them. Does 
anybody have any comments on this? Thanks.
