    hi, i need some help related to wordpress shordcode.
    I want to make a custom button shortcode
    here's the php code
    
function button( $atts, $content = null ) {
	extract(shortcode_atts(array(
		'size'		=> 'large',
		'url'		=> '#',
	), $atts));
	$out = "<a class=\"$size button \" href=\"$url\">" .do_shortcode($content). "<a/>" ;
	return $out; 
}
add_shortcode('button', 'button');
    PHP:
    when i call the short code like [button]let's go[/button]
    the result i expected is like : 
    
 <a class="large button" href="#">let's go</a>
    HTML:
    but what i got is with double <a> in the end of code:
    
 <a class="large button" href="#">let's go</a><a></a>
    HTML:
    does anybody can help me? what's wrong? Thanks in advance.
