Which I equate to just being lazy. I am a bit biased as I use XML all day long, but I really think XHTML is the better standard, and that is what should be used as it puts emphasis on the browser manufactures to get their XML support, and their XHTML rendering instructions nailed down. The last little bit against XHTML goes along the lines of, if you are not doing anything XML like with your pages you shouldn't use XHTML. But, by not using XHTML you limit your users from doing XML stuff with your content. You never know what a user might want to do with your code, and if it is well-formed and easy to parse you can do almost anything with it. XML and XSLT are huge business standard, and once you start using it regularly you will be pained when you do not have it, it is very nice and incredibly flexible. Get to know it, and start using it as soon as you can, its knowledge is valuable. Dan @ [url=http://www.codetown.org]Code Town[/url] Loading...
