- # Internet Explorer is the worst piece of crap to have ever been
- # written, with the possible exception of Windows itself. Since IE is
- # unable to parse proper XML, we have to provide a hack to generate XML
- # that IE's limited abilities can handle. This hack inserts a space
- # before the /> on empty tags.
