Bad coding?

Is it me or is the default auto-response/Thank you for your submission message in WFB not coded properly? It has been like that since day one and since nobody has mentioned it, I thought I was just being a lamer. That may well be the case, however, all the books and validator software I have tried says in an html file there should not be anything else outside the closing body tag but the closing html tag. In WFB there is a closing div between the closing body and html tags. That just doesn't seem right but I'll bow to superior knowledge if I am wrong.

Hiya Dave,

Are you on the most recent version? I was under the impression that had been fixed a couple versions ago. I haven't installed the latest build, but I did install the one right before it last week and I didn't see that in there at all. Not to say it may not have reverted lol, but hopefully it's just an older version thing for you. :)

Hmm I'll see if I can remember later to check it out. I'm very sure that was corrected in a previous version as it was actually reported a good handful of times to the devs prior and during the beta testing of it. I'll let ya know what I find out on mine later :)

It's still there in v.2, Build 4263.
The following are the last lines in "Customize Auto-Response submission":
....
<div>
[form_results]
</body>
</div>
</html>

Interesting, that would mean it's there "again" because I'm 100% sure that was fixed in a previous version as I remember checking it.... Scooottttt!
