Details

take the following code: <html> <head> <title>test</title> </head> <body> <plaintext>hello, I'm, plaintext</plaintext> </body> </html> save it as an html file, and render it in the browser -- what you get is this: hello, I', plaintext</plaintext></body> that is clearly incorrect
Another case, In HTML 2.0 plaintext has been deprecated, use <pre></pre> instead. In HTML 4.0 plaintext has been obsolute, use <pre></pre> instead. Working example: ---------------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <pre>hello, I'm, plaintext</pre> </body> </html> Your W3C validator, Friendly, HJ.
