XHTML is very much similar to html. For instance:

HTML
<img src="dhtml.jpg">

HTML/XHTML
<img src="dhtml.jpg" alt="" />

Whatever, i usually write more of html on this board 'cos some newbies have asked me the difference
between <hr> and <hr/>

Anyway, whatever you write it in doesn't matter so long as it works.
A short way to solve this problem is by using them HTML Converter.

I beg to differ. It DOES matter, otherwise those who came up with XHTML wouldn't have bothered. The best way to show this is to walk someone through an HTML file (preferably using tables) and coding the same file in XTHML, noting the change in page size, how easy the XTHML version is to read and understand, etc.

The only way to convince anyone of anything in general is through proof and statistics. If there is anyone who needs me to whip up a quick page to demonstrate this fact (heck, if you give me your own website, I will use it for the demo ), let me know.

True talk

There are many ways of achieving the same thing. My site is XHTML valid by the way - in case you havent seen it.
I think it is important to save the time of writing redundant codes. Not when there are better codes to write.
I tried the stuff and it worked fine to convert a site i made formerly in html to xhtml.

What i did was first make a backup cope, then convert it using the converter. Crosscheck with an xhtml validator.
No errors, then viewed it in a browser, works fine. O pari. I have nothing to prove to you guyz.
If any specific questions were asked, i will answer. So far there is none.

Erhm, i will leave that to the professionals talking up there to answer. I use html or xhtml - the fastest way out mostly - sometimes mixed.

. . .then no need convertinq it, since the professionals, as in the Oversabi ppl will answer my question, i'm out before somethinq terrible happen here.

Doesn't matter which one to use HTML or XHTML.

I prefer XHTML the latest version for more stable dynamic multimedia site i use on Flash, Flex, PHP and XML to be parsed data faster retrieval.

Exactly, XHTML is more structured and easier to parse. And nice, you use flex too. And again, wap 2.0 is mainly XHTML. XHTML has some more advantages over HTML.

XHTML is simply strict HTML.

No much difference except that XHTML acts like  a "framework" for writing HTML codes.

TO follow web standards and to take care of stakeholders of websites (including the deaf, the blind, novice etc), it's neccessary for us to build sites that are XHTML compliant and cater for the needs for the end-users.

Therefore, you have stuffs like

1. Closing every tag opened. Some tags aren't closed in HTML. e.g <img>

2. Enabling accessibility. e.g alt must have a description for images

3. Attribute names must be in lower case. no <HTML> rather; <html>

4. The id attribute replaces the name attribute

bla bla bla

I like the way you actually put it, makes it sound more interesting.

. . .uhm i'm learninq

Please i need html and web desing tutor.

All my time seem to be occupied at the moment. I have some few projects to complete for now and am completely booked up.
However you have some other ppl here dat can help you learn.

www.w3schools.com should b enouh to get your feet wet.

good luck!

Just that many of you folks think the only way to learn good is to have a direct tutor. Try those online stuffs, and come back to ask us questions, i think that is more easier to manage.

People have different ways of assimilation.

I guess if you are really determined, you'll learn it and understand!
