  Wed Jun 25 19:46:03 2008 user42 [...] zip.com.au - Ticket created
Subject: unclosed <a> on multiple =item
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2008 09:43:37 +1000
To: bug-Pod-Simple [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Kevin Ryde <user42 [...] zip.com.au>
With pod-simple 3.07 and the debian perl 5.10.0 the foo.pod below put through perl -MPod::Simple::HTML -e Pod::Simple::HTML::go foo.pod produces <dt><a name="one" Show quoted text
>one
<dt><a name="two" Show quoted text
>two</a></dt>
where I believe the first <a> is not closed by a matching </a>. It doesn't seem to hurt any browsers, but weblint, ie. HTML::Lint, complains about it. Nosing nosing around some of the w3c html4 spec suggests </a> is supposed to be mandatory (and <a>'s not nest).

Message body is not shown because sender requested not to inline it.

Thanks. I've just fixed this bug in svn. It'll be in the next release of Pod::Simple (probably tomorrow). —Theory
