In my opinion you fail to make the latter point clear. The only thing I read in the blogpost is: - XHTML doesn't fit in the way you're used to develop for the web (1,2,3) - You've spotted some problems with the current state of the implementations (4,5,6) - You're irritated by the advocates (7,8) Most of these problems affect you, only if you were forced to develop XHTML pages (which you are most likely not). Visiting XHTML pages can be just as cumbersome as visiting HTML4 when the developer of the page didn't do some proper testing and bugfixing before publishing his page. Furthermore I tend to agree with the 2nd comment [1] on your blog. - Bram! P.S. Messy quotes at the bottom of a mail indeed are considered harmful :) [1] http://codinginparadise.org/weblog/2005/08/xhtml-considered-harmful.html#c112534835130697531
