ding-dong, html is dead. the w3c finally approved the xhtml spec. it'll be interesting to see the chaos that html4, xml w/ css, & xhtml create in the coming months. posted by mmanning (1 comment total)
Remember the basic rules of XHTML vs. HTML:
1) All elements MUST be lowercase
2) All attribute values MUST have quotes
3) You MUST list a DTD at the top of every page
4) Every element MUST have a closing element. So elements like HR or BR or IMG can have a /HR or /BR or /IMG......but they can also have a "/" at the end of the element. Like this: <HR/>
