About a month ago Jeroen van Gelderen mailed this simple patch which has
worked perfectly for me

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=3D36626792

It just does this with ehtml_expand/2:

ehtml_expand({Tag, Attrs}) ->
    NL = ehtml_nl(Tag),
    [NL, "<", atom_to_list(Tag), ehtml_attrs(Attrs), "/>"];

Claes said he'd fold into the main source, but it seems it didn't make it to
1.65?
