I would suggest studying XHTML first for quite some time before trying to convert your pages to XHTML. For normal Web authoring, XHTML offers no improvement over HTML at present, and XHTML served as XHTML does not work on Internet Explorer. So make sure you understand the pros and cons before starting to use XHTML on new pages - and converting existing pages to XHTML just for the sake of conversion is quite pointless (unless you have some particular intentions of doing something that really benefits from XHTML). In particular, you just waste your time with syntactic details if you start using XHTML before understanding the issue well. > I encountered an error message: there is no attribute "onblur". If the document validated under HTML DOCTYPE and now fails to validate, I'm pretty sure you didn't use "onblur" but e.g. "onBlur" or "ONBLUR". XHTML requires lower case for all element names and for all attribute names. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
