Sorry to be a pedant, but this cheat-sheet is misleading.
HTML4 doesn't technically allow self closing tags ( <br /> <hr /> etc), whereas XHTML does.
Accidentally posted before finishing:
From w3c >>
The sequence <FOO /> can be interpreted in at least two different ways, depending on the DOCTYPE of the document. For HTML 4.01 Strict, the '/' terminates the tag <FOO (with an implied '>'). However, since many browsers don't interpret it this way, even in the presence of an HTML 4.01 Strict DOCTYPE, it is best to avoid it completely in pure HTML documents and reserve its use solely for those written in XHTML.
Quite right, Scott, and thanks for pointing that out. I've fixed the issue.
