Hi,

When I validate a HTML 4.01 STRICT document it doesn't like to see a
closed tag like this

<link rel="stylesheet" href="base.css" type="text/css"/>

but it is happy with

<link rel="stylesheet" href="base.css" type="text/css">

Does anyone know why the link cannot be closed in HTML? It seems
strange if HTML 4.01 is supposed to be closely parallel with XHTML.

Thanks,
Peter
