in thread Convert BMP to HTML

The closing tags for TD and TR are optional by the spec, it's not "erroneous HTML".

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

    With HTML5, you can omit A LOT of markup. This is perfectly valid HTML5, even without <head> and <body> elements (they are implicit), and without the closing </html>:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<title>Valid HTML</title>
<h1>Valid HTML</h1>

      True, but is the monastery not much older than HTML5?

      Looking into the source I see (though chrome is graying it out)

      <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

      So I tried to find those specifications, but couldn't locate clear rules about closing tags in HTML4.

      But some examples clearly demonstrate omitted tags.

      <TABLE border="1">
<TR><TD>1 <TD rowspan="2">2 <TD>3
<TR><TD>4 <TD>6
<TR><TD>7 <TD>8 <TD>9
</TABLE>

        Check e.g. the TR section:

        Start tag: required, End tag: optional

        map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
