<source/> Tag Syntax

Rules for coding HTML source/ elements
<source .../>

<source/> Content Model

Contents of the source element

Content: Empty. All properties are coded using attributes.

Since the <source/> tag is a void element, it is not allowed to have any content, even HTML comments and therefore should always be coded as a self-closing standalone tag, ending with the delimiter string /> rather than just > (<source .../>).
