    Aloha from Honolulu,I'm learning XHTML by re-writing my homepage and validating it. So far I've rid it of five errors and I'm working my way down the page. But I have a few errors that have the same message: "unclosed start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES" an example: '<tr>' shows the '<' underlined and colored red. I've Googled for SHORTTAG YES and start-tag without finding anything that explains what these mean.Can someone explain them to me?So far, I get that it has something to do with how a tag is closed. Whether it is just a slash and greater-than like: '/>' or if the tag is in there too: ' </tag>' . Sometimes the </tag> is unacceptable, but I haven't figured out what determines that. It seems that mostly it wants to see /> I say that because I've changed several closing tags to that and the errors went away, but I'd like to understand why.I went to W3C site and tried to find it in the specifications, but got lost. Does anyone have a simple definition?Thanks in advance.Mahalo (Thank You),Roger
