How can NS4 which predates XML (even if 4.7 doesn't) be X-anything
compliant?
NS4 only has an HTML parser so any use of /> that is "allowed" only gets
by because of the lax error reporting of bad HTML syntax not because of
any design feature. IE doesn't support XHTML either, if you give an
xhtml file to its XML parser it does nothing special with it and just
uses its normal xml tree view stylesheet.
