           Summary: simple close tag is not supported for <a> and <object>
                    tag.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P1
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: changzhi.wang at intel.com

Close tags <a/> and <object/> like this will damage the whole html file.

for example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<object width="400" height="300" data="hello.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"/>

<div id="result">
These data should be visible!
</div>

</body>
</html>

The text in <div> should be visible. But instead the <div> is treated as alt text of <object>.
