When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by DualCore1: 11:35pm On Feb 21, 2010
Some think HTML is old fashioned and XHTML has come to replace it.
Others have argued that HTML still has its valid uses in our time and XHTML isnt a replace for it.


What do you think?

Goodnight good pipz, i want to wake up and see 1 million replies please grin

XHTML is a strict and cleaner version of HTML. So each can b use interchangeably. XHTML is likely to be more than HTML because it seems to be HTML defined as an XML, dont u think so.
Also XHTML has a modularization-model which defines the modules of XHTML. And spliting XHTML into modules created well defined sets of XHTML element which can be used seperately for small devices or combined with other XML standards in more complex applications. Well, other member of the house will have their views, so lets wait 4 their responds

If you say that, then what about DHTML? do you think DHTML is better than XHTML?
Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by c7(m): 1:30am On Feb 23, 2010
Haaaba *dhtml, dual core posted about XHTML and HTML,so i decided to tell a little about d d/fs.
@*dhtml, what about DHTML? Do you think dhtml is better than xhtml.
Let me ask is DHTML a new markup language.? No, I knw u will say, Xhtml is html defined in Xml applications. While in the other hand Dhtml is about applying web technologies like HTML , CSS, DOM, JAVASCRIPT to create dynamic web pages.
Although i also prefer DHTML.
Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by Nobody: 6:19am On Feb 23, 2010
Dont mind me jare, yes you are right, DHTML is a combination of everything, flash. . . .the point is, just combine everything and bring out a good job

To avoid much talks, checkout the W3C Specifications for any of them and use where specified. You are not the model but a mere user :-P

These dayz, in order to save much time, many people use frameworks, and many of these frameworks prefer XHTML, since it is more standardized
compared to HTML. So in the end, you dont really have much of a choice except if you are handcoding all the way. Dreamweaver by default too
uses XHTML (at least CS4)
Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by OmniPotens(m): 8:59am On Feb 23, 2010
I prefer the handcoding as it's better. You know what code exists and where so you are pretty sure of everythings usage. I'm still wondering at the day i'll install DW again on my pc. For some years now, i've not seen her looks. Talking about frameworks, man, you know better than i do in that aspect. I'm good at my own development design as i see it easier for me. You'll teach me even to use those someday; jooola, drupal, etc.
Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by Nobody: 12:56pm On Feb 23, 2010
Even the frameworks i have seen so far, like drupal, joomla and a few other not-so-popular ones make use of XHTML.  
Come to think of it, even nairaland (XHTML) and facebook (XHTML/DHTML) and other self respecting sites are using XHTML.
And so i sign outta this thread.  .
Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by kabarka(m): 1:22pm On Feb 23, 2010

@*dhtml, True talk,Frameworks are been developed from existing technologies.
I thought facebook has their own markup developed with XML. I Want to know more about drupal and joomla
Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by Nobody: 4:12pm On Feb 23, 2010
yeah right, those languages like HTML, CSS, PHP, XML, XHTML, ASP, ASP.NET are fundamental languages. others are built from it.
Facebook have their own framework based on dhtml/XHTML, and there are frameworks for site building like wordpress, joomla,
drupal. then there are client sided frameworks like mootools, jQuery. . . .all these are just names, and are meant to make the
coding process simpler and more straight forward.

there is actually no difference from the point of view of the end user.

just that xhtml is stricter and easier to maintain.

Re: When To Use Html And When To Use Xhtml by Nobody: 5:48am On Feb 25, 2010

darn if i know. I think you first need to get a basic understanding of what HTML is, then you
will be able to answer that question.
