all of this will work correctly <hr>, <hr/>, <hr/>. the slash is needed when using xhtml, in html you are not needed to close <hr> element. this is a self closing element. you can check for yourself this one works '<hr/>' & '<hr>, '<hr />'. but not this one '</hr>'

<hr/> and <hr> will work, but don't try to close it, it's an empty tag...
