"HTML" which is a family of languages, could be construed to be extensible, but any particular HTML version: HTML 3.2, Netscape 2.0 HTML, HTML 2.0, ISO HTML, HTML Pro, etc., is *not* extensible. >Lets face >it, HTML 3.2 won't work then until every browser is 3.2 compliant, and >there are many a browser that has not been updated in years now. HTML 3.2 "worked" as soon as it was created and installed on a validator's hard drive.
