Line break not working about markdown-js HOT 4 CLOSED

Github is behaving incorrectly as well. From the Markdown Documentation

When you do want to insert a
break tag using Markdown, you end a line with two or more spaces, then type return.

Your code is inserting <br></br> when it should be inserting <br />

from markdown-js.

i solved it for myself a little dirty, maybe a hint for someone else:

1314: // be careful about adding whitespace here for inline elements
1315: if(tag == "br")
1316:   return "<"+ tag + tag_attrs + "/>";
1317: else
1318:   return "<"+ tag + tag_attrs + ">" + content.join( "" ) + "</" + tag + ">";

from markdown-js.

I've observed this problem as well and fixed it with a patch similar to franzwilding's

from markdown-js.

good to hear!

thank you!
