I think this page explains the roots of the confusion very well:
Empty elements in SGML, HTML, XML, and XHTML

It wasn't until I got to the bottom of the read that I realized Jukka
wrote it -- I've known him for many years and he knows his stuff.
I understand the concept of why not to use an empty element, which is
if you want to add additional space between elements, then use css
margins, or line-height, or whatever.
It's just that a <br> tag works quicker than defining a set of rules
for a class.
In any event, thanks for the link -- that helped me to see that
problem (as well as many others) better.
Cheers,
tedd
