Good morning boys and girls... "XHTML ?" asked my friend "why should I need that ? I am doin HTML 3.2 right now, and it is really enough for me!" I think, my friend has some right ideas. Why should I really use another new language ? Using a new one means work, and learning new tags. Also there is the problem of incompatibilty to old browsers. My meaning to XHTML is, that you really should stay on it. I recommened the use of XHTML, because of all it possibilities. ( which are found @http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml ) Just one thing you should never do: Following a M$ standard makes you incompatibel to other systems. As I saw it in HTML 4.0 you took many tags from the IE into the specification, which only IE understands. This is not very good for us, the Linux, Amiga, BeOS, UN*X Apple & Co. user. sincerly yours, Nico Schottelius -- ***) Nico Schottelius ***) nicos@pcsystems.de ***) http://www.pcsystems.de/~nicos/
