User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20130505 Firefox/23.0 Build ID: 20130505030916 Steps to reproduce: When we use the DOM inspector on a page, we don't see the code as he is written. For example, if a page contain the markup <br/>, the inspector will show <br></br>. It's really disturbing.
Component: Untriaged → Developer Tools: Inspector
Severity: normal → enhancement
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
This is because we show the DOM, not the source code. <br/> and <br></br> are equivalent. And it's important to not use an autoclosing tag because the user won't be able to add content in it.
