I suspect the main problem people have is that it isn't backwards compatible and that will be a real problem unless we have XHTML 1.3-1.9 which ease us (over the next 5 to 10 years) into this. As a side note about XHTML 1.0 - I have now been through Appendix C and the 16 points are either things you should be doing anyway or rather obscure little tweaks so I can't really see much excuse not to produce good quality working XHTML 1.0 - its not the fault of the standard (or, shockingly, even the browsers/UAs) the downfall of XHTML 1.0 is poor implementation by the coders. I can't claim to have it all nailed down perfectly but I can see the issues. However, in the end it is your call what you code in but I think it would be a collosal mistake to discard XHTML 1.x and remember XHTML 2.0 is only a proposal so you all get to have some feedback. ___________________ Emps FAQs: [url=http://faq.ozoneasylum.com/53/]Emperor[/url] Loading...
