There is great difference between .htm and .html extensions. Everyone think there is no difference but something is hide here. Acutally I don't know more but one thing is ....Using DOS we can't give more than 3 letter/character extension and when we execute the file from DOS we can't execute the file if it's extension contains more than 3 characters. So we use .htm in earlier time. But nowadays all systems support .html extension. In preferred to use .htm extension not .html because .htm is supported either old systems and modern systems.
