Precisely! And if, on occasions, you make a mistake (as my mother
frequently did), and the result is tastier, that becomes your new
recipe! http://www.swiftys.org.uk/wiz?106
Perhaps next time I'll say "Add a soupçon of closing tags" :-)

Remember, the only "standard" that I'm designing to (in my commercial
activity, at least) is "Must work in IE6 and the current Firefox", so
pragmatic design outweighs hypothetical stuff. So the <FORM> tag goes
(a) where it works, and (b) where it causes none of my target audience
to get weird effects, then I move on to something else.

As far as Microsoft and the Firefox developers are concerned, I should
imagine one of their highest priorities is "Mustn't screw up legacy
pages with new releases otherwise the customers will switch to the
competition" so I'm happy they're looking after me.
