auto-ident problem using XML tools plug-in in HTML pages

[Adriano Ellero]

Using XML tools plung-in I have issues with <br> tags in HTML pages.
For each <br> the plug-in add a column as tab-empy space, same as standard HTML tags (i.e. <p> </p>).
Any hint?

sorry, don’t understand your question. What do you want to achieve?

i think the xml tools auto formatting/auto indentation (pretty print) has a problem with a html line break written as <br>, as it does not have a closing / tag.

@Adriano-Ellero

sorry about not replying to your other thread about <br> yet.

if my assumption from above is correct:
i did not find any workaround using xml tools with an unclosed <br> yet.

the only way i got auto indentation to work is by using a self closing <br/> instead.
unfortunately many coders use <br> instead of <br/> since it is also valid.

so until anyone finds any workaround for the xml tools auto indentation, or has a better alternative plugin, which is available for x64, you would have to replace all <br> with <br/>.

thanks I did on that way <br />
all browsers accept that!
