html_write:layout(+Tag, -Open, -Close)

Specify the layout conventions for the element Tag, which is a lowercase atom. Open is a term Pre-Post. It defines that the element should have at least Pre newline characters before and Post after the tag. The Close specification is similar, but in addition allows for the atom -, requesting the output generator to omit the close-tag altogether or empty, telling the library that the element has declared empty content. In this case the close-tag is not emitted either, but in addition html//1 interprets Arg in Tag(Arg) as a list of attributes rather than the content.

A tag that does not appear in this table is emitted without additional layout. See also print_html/[1,2]. Please consult the library source for examples.
