xhtml-ending Tag in Helpers

Hello,
is there a possibility to insert helper-tags without the xhtml ending-tag "/>"?
Like a switch to toggle this behaviour?

Best regards.

Why would you even want to do this? In HTML you should close empty tags as well.
Get into the habit of writing well formed code. It will help you a lot in the long run.

On the package it said needs Windows 7 or better. So I installed Linux.
