<mini-rant>The problem is that XHTML isn't XML. It's some messed up 
psuedo language that is more strict than HTML, but not as loose as 
XML</mini-rant>

The collapsed tags are equivalent in XML, but not XHTML. The pages are 
generated by running the content through Xalan, which sees that in XML 
the two options are equivalent, and so collapses the tags. I've used 
methods similar to Sac's suggestion below. You could try the xsl:output 
tag/method and set the type to HTML.
