When I create a new element, such as div, it automatically generates both an opening and closing tag. However, when creating an element like canvas, only the opening tag is generated. Why does this happen?
document.createElement('div');
This code results in <div></div>.
document.createElement('canvas');
Executing this code will create <canvas>. If a child element is appended to it, then it will become
<canvas>childTag</canvas>canvas? And which elements act like the aforementioned div? Is the closing tag for canvas optional?
