Again, the whole purpose of XHTML (besides being an XML application) is to further separate content and presentation information. Most XHTML DTDs are a transitive medium towards this, with XHTML1.1/strict/basic as the final targets. Just check out the DTDs. You cannot use all those HTML4.0 display-oriented attributes. That is because CSS is supposed to serve for this purpose. > There is no > requirement of > CSS in XHTML specifications. If you do want to have some display control such as choosing fonts and colors, you are required to use CSS. Regards, Manos
