Not a bug All anchors need href="#" at least or javascript: void;

[Dad.]

The member_card template has:

<a class="close OverlayCloser"></a>

Without an href, this is not valid HTML (even though it works just fine). Ive just had people complain that the markup is incorrect :/

So I just figured you might want to do a regex search for all anchors that don't have href.

<a> tags are valid without hrefs. There's actually an example of one here: http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/a.html (and you can pop that into a validator and it won't error).

After looking into the issue, it was giving me a slightly different issue. Apparently there was a missing quote somewhere, so I assumed that the w3 validator was now required hrefs. Which I swear and older HTML standard used to?

ETA: Apparantly its not required but what it does do is offer, well, strange behavior in various browsers. Sometimes if an href isn't set the link disappears altogether.
