The standards are created by the World Wide Web Consortium, or W3C.
The two organizations that oversee the development of HTML are the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WATWG).
it think the versions are HTML 1.0 HTML 2.0 HTML 3.0 HTML 3.2 HTML 4.01 xhtml 1.0 and now HTML 5 The different versions are used to characterize changes in the HTML itself. With new features and new tags come new versions. In the modern web, (HTML 4+) the versions are also the basis for laying out standards that describe the function of the HTML and how the browsers are supposed to display it. For instance, prior to HTML 2.0, there were no images available in HTML. If you're interested, the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) is in charge of keeping the current HTML and XHTML standards. You can find the specific changes in versions on their website.
Yes it is. the xhtml 1.0 to be precise!
That is what seems to be happening already. XHTML is being used more than normal HTML for modern websites, since it forces better cross-browser compatibility -- meaning that multiple browsers viewing the same page should see the same thing. HTML may never fully take over XHTML; however, at this rate, XHTML will be the markup language most commonly used for webpages.
1.0
The requirement for a valid XHTML is that all the tags should be closed. This is actually the difference between HTML and XHTML.
The World Wide Web Consortium, or the W3C. They set the standards and specifications of HTML and XHTML, and how it should be used.
No. HTML existed before XHTML. XHTML combines XML and HTML, so it is an advancement on HTML.
There are various standards that are being evolved in HTML. These include adding a doctype at the top of the page.
The HTML language, which was originally based of SGML, was rewritten following XML guidelines for the XHTML 1.0 and 1.1 standards. These standards were well embraced by the web development community, but XHTML has since been largely supplanted in new projects by HTML 5 (which is not XML compliant.)
The World Wide Web Consortium, or W3C, is the body responsible for standardizing many of the technologies used in making the web work. Among the standards they maintain are HTML, XHTML, XML, RSS, and JavaScript.
HTML and XHTML are two different languages used for web and application design. XHTML was a popular choice from about the year 2000, to 2011. HTML 5 is intended to replace XHTML. XHTML followed the basic rules of XML-based languages. HTML (both prior and since) do not.
No, XHTML is a parallel language to HTML. XHTML is a XML language definition where tags have similar meanings to corresponding HTML tags. A crude analogy would be that XHTML and HTML are half-brothers; Lot's of similarities but also distinct differences. The successor of HTML is HTML5, the successor of XHMTL is XHTML5.
basikly xhtml is a mics of html and xml. the difference in html and xhtml is that xhtml is a more strict on the syntax and defined as a xml document. xml is a self defined language... in short it is a strikter html in xml format...
Today the W3C produces XHTML standards. Their completed work can be found at http://www.w3.org/standards/techs/html#w3c_all. The original XHTML 1.0 specification is located at http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/REC-xhtml1-20020801, and an updated version 1.1 is at http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xhtml11-20010531.
HTML is in XHTML, some argue that XHTML is it's own markup
Yes, XHTML is just the stricter form of HTML. It means that you have to close all the tags that you have opened.
XHTML is a combination of largely HTML and a small portion of XML.
