XHTML summary

What was discussed and XHTML wrap-up

The lessons in this section have taught you about XHTML -- the next phase in the evolution of HTML.

The lessons included information on what XHTML is, a short discussion of the world wide web, the purpose of XHTML, the differences between HTML and XHTML, XHTML snytax, XHTML document type definitions, page validation, and more.

XHTML will eventually replace HTML, the final version of HTML being HTML 4.01. The first version of XHTML was XHTML 1.0 and the current version is XHTML 1.1.

XHTML is a stricter and cleaner version of HTML with some of HTML's tags deprecated in it, such as the <font> tag.
