  Not so far:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt-xquery-serialization/#html-output.

  I don't know Filemaker, but I never heard this name when speaking
about 2.0 (partial) implementations.  So I guess it's 1.0 XSLT.  So the
correct reference is:

http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xslt-19991116#section-HTML-Output-Method

    The html output method should not output an end-tag
    for empty elements. For HTML 4.0, the empty elements
    are area, base, basefont, br, col, frame, hr, img,
    input, isindex, link, meta and param. For example, an
    element written as <br/> or <br></br> in the stylesheet
    should be output as <br>.

  Don't this tool permit you to change the XSLT processor to be used? 
So you could use a correct implementation.
