Potentially stupid but most likely easy question

HTML & CSS
1

I am finding

<img src="whatever/whatever.jpg" />

and

<img src="whatever/whatever.jpg">

both works. but which one is the correct one w/the “/” or without it?
thank you all.

It depends on your doctype, the first one is for a XHTML doctype and the second is for an HTML.

Thank you, I didn’t know that.
I am finding both on this html page, not sure if it would be best to leave them all alone, is there an opinion or bkm on this?
Thx

You will get errors if you run your page through a validator but I do not think it will effect the page. Personally I would change them and it should not take long with a copy and paste.
