I've been wondering about the different break tags.. they both appear to do the same thing to a php page visually, so what's the difference, and does it matter which one I use? I also noticed /> on the end of a form input tag on the cafelog.com index, so I'm thinking maybe that's just a php thing or something.

With XML or XHTML, all tags that dont close themselves, like <input> or <br> or <hr> for example need to be closed to XML/XHTML knows that its closed. So you would need to change it to <input />, <br />, <hr /> and so on.

PHP isn't XHTML...right? (I don't really really know much about scripting languages beyond HTML, lol.)

PHP is a server-side scripting language
XHTML is the evolution of HTML, a client-side hypertext language
