It's achieved huge traction in the number of pages on the web which are now XHTML1 rather than HTML4 or tag soup. Many new pages that use XHTML1 (sent as text/html, of course, so none of the advantages of using XHTML1 are being realised, since browsers handle text/html as tag soup). For example: http://www.msn.com/ http://www.ibm.com/ http://www.wellsfargo.com/ http://www.ctv.ca/ http://www.sex.com/ http://www.dvdtalk.com/ http://www.findwho.com/ http://www.gnome.org/ http://www.kde.org/ http://www.kulturaxe.net/ http://www.musictheory.net/ http://mpt.phrasewise.com/ http://www.w3.org/ http://www.webstandards.org/ http://www.xiven.com/ http://www.xmlns.com/ http://www.bigfoot.com/~alexeyc/ http://www.chinaweblog.com/ Authors are increasingly using XHTML1 rather than HTML4 for new pages. This is a trend I've noticed (as part of doing QA for Mozilla, I often have to look at the source of recently authored web pages). -- Ian Hickson )\._.,--....,'``. fL "meow" /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,. http://index.hixie.ch/ `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.'
