I realised that naps is span backwards. I did the Chrome thing when I read the question. Now I get the nap/sleep thing. I read the inception bit and thought it must be something to do with the movie.

@AnishGupta: First thing, did you realize that <naps/> is </span> unicode-backwarded? Use Chrome, right click on Panama's comment (not mine, mine opens a new line and screws the effect), and inspect. There will be a mirrored span--> naps. As for my comment, I was saying that a "nap" (i.e. sleep), has a duration and thus does not qualify as a self-closing tag. And Inception had to do with dreams-within-dreams-within-dreams, so I was saying that, in addition to being non-self-closing, they must be nestable ;-)

| May 8, 2012 at 13:45 | comment | added | Anish Gupta | @Manishearth I don't get that. I didn't see Inception. | |
| May 8, 2012 at 13:44 | comment | added | Manishearth | @AnishGupta: But naps have a duration! They must have open-close tags! And they must be nestable (seen Inception? ) :P | |
| May 8, 2012 at 13:41 | comment | added | Anish Gupta | @Manishearth Actually that tag doesn't need a closing tag :) (it is a self-closing tag) | |

Whats cool is that Chrome's devtools are themselves webapps, so they get screwed by the character as well; and grokking how Panama and the rest did this magic was pretty hard (I knew it was a bidi thingy, but I first was looking for an unclosed bidi rtl span). All the devtools show is the mysterious <naps/> closing tag. :P

| May 8, 2012 at 13:34 | comment | added | Manishearth | To clarify the comment, I'd supplied the character in the codeblock. ?huh ,looC | |
