Well, apache is too stupid to produce valid html. <hr> is not allowed
inside <pre>, so khtml closes the <pre> element, and puts the html code
after the <hr> in a seperate paragraph. khtml is already allowing much
more inside <pre> than the html specs to not break too many pages. Hmmm,
I'll see if I can get a <hr> inside <pre> working. But the better
solution would be to tell the apache guys to fix their html. At least a
web server should produce valid HTML code.
