Note that XSLT does not work woith tags, it works with elements (element
nodes).

If you are using the xml output method then an empty  text area element can
either be written out as <textarea/> or <textarea></textarea>
But both of those are "proper" XML. However if you are writing html for a
browser then you don't want XML at all, you want html, and teh html
output will never use the /> syntax for empty elements.
