Question

when i edit the HTML source from:

<div />

the result is always something like:

<div></div>

i don’t want that.. it should leave my code alone 😉

here is the config:

tinyMCE.init({
// General options
mode : "textareas",
theme: "advanced",
element_format : "xhtml",
    remove_linebreaks: false,
    remove_redundant_brs: false,
    cleanup_on_startup : false,
    cleanup: false, // cleanup: true -> custom_elemts are not working...
    verify_html : false,
    forced_root_block: false,
    apply_source_formatting: false,
    fix_nesting: false,
    fix_table_elements: false,
    fix_list_elements : false,
    fix_content_duplication : false,
    preformatted : false,

    extended_valid_elements: "pbo:*[*]",

});

any ideas?

You’re specifying the format as xhtml and divs cannot be self-closing — that’s why it’s fixing it for you. If you want it to be exactly as you say then you’ll need to change the element_format property.
