Description
Disallow children in void DOM elements.
Self-closing HTML elements (e.g. <img />, <br />, <hr />) are collectively known as void DOM elements. React will give you a warning if you try to give these children:
Invariant Violation: img is a void element tag and must neither have children nor use dangerouslySetInnerHTML.
Examples
Failing
<br>Children</br>
<br children="Children" />
<br dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: 'HTML' }} />
React.createElement('br', undefined, 'Children')
React.createElement('br', { children: 'Children' })
React.createElement('br', { dangerouslySetInnerHTML: { __html: 'HTML' } })Passing
<div>Children</div>
<div children="Children" />
<div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: 'HTML' }} />
React.createElement('div', undefined, 'Children')
React.createElement('div', { children: 'Children' })
React.createElement('div', { dangerouslySetInnerHTML: { __html: 'HTML' } })Implementation
