The space before the slash in <br/> is unnecessary. Yeah my web design and development tutor would be throwing things at you. He genuinely took marks off people for not putting a space between. I mean, if we're being pedantic, you don't need the backslash at all, but this is programmin' county, y'all. We's here to be pendantics an NOTHIN' else. |
Your tutor is wrong. It might matter if there's an attribute (then I use the space), but without one you don't need it.
Also, that's not a backslash. |

Ya, its not "needed" but I can understand somebody adding it for consistency sake. I know I generally do (ok, i lie, i like kinda sorta remember to even add the /)

Any markup that doesn't have a separate closing tag I'll close with a space and forward slash.

If the only thing you want is to allow players to write text on multiple lines you can replace all newlines ("\n") with the HTML-equivalent ("<br />").
See example:
This assumes you are using the Deadron.TextHandling library, which provides the dd_replacetext function.
If you want to do more than that you'll have to write your own rich-text editor and show it in a browser window. You may be able to use existing plugins such as TinyMCE though you'll have to load them from your own external website, a CDN or send each file as a resource to the client.
