Void elements should not use trailing slashes. #795

Closed Raza403 closed 10 months ago

Raza403 commented 10 months ago

Trailing slashes on void elements have no effect and interact badly with unquoted attribute values. Suggest removing trailing slashes from void elements such as img, hr, or br.

kramdown outputs valid XHTML, so the trailing slash is needed.
