in reply to CGI.pm and XHTML

According to XHTML it should be <br /> or <br></br> and it is with use CGI. The problem seems to be with CGI::Pretty. I guess you found a bug there.

It may be a bug - in my copy, the lines: `if ($linebreak) { $break = $XHTML ? "<br />" : "<br>"; }` [download] .. appear, so they know about this already, it's in version 2.752 (what I got here). Perhaps you need to upgrade CGI.pm?	[reply] [d/l]

Yup, it's a bug with CGI::Pretty. Sigh. There was a bug in $CGI::VERSION 2.46 with CGI::Pretty that was stripping the attributes of HTML tags. Yet another reason to avoid CGI::Pretty. Thanks!
