Who likes the newer version? I liked HTML, but I guess you have to change with the times. Some things are better I guess, but I learned writing HTML on Notepad!

What exactly is the main difference? Can you script both together? Do you need any server side scripts?

Ok i am going to try and clear up some of this.

HTML and XHTML technically are differant lanaguages.

Xhtml is a much cleaner langauge and makes the coder code better meaning their pages are more complinet and more cross browser compat etc..

the most simple thing is that all it requires extra is to close all tags. so say with html 4.01 its valid to have <br> in XHTML you have to close it so <br /> and <img /> etc also require quotes like <img src="src.jpg" />

and as the strictness of xhtml some elements and tags are removed such as the target in anything above transitional and a few others.

HTML is very detailed.. You have to write long codes..
XHTML is simple and cleaner..

I like HTML too. I am using a lot of text editors in writing HTML,PHP,CSS and JavaScript codes, to mention a few, HTMLKit, Crimson, Notepad++,and the illustrated DreamWeaver.

The first 3 are free and can be installed without any hassle, the latter are licensed.

I have no idea about XHTML but I think HTML once you got the hang of it, its simple. I also use PHP a lot too...CSS and Java are ok. CSS is easy only when you know what you are doing.

i did never understand the difference between the 2

In XHTML, all tags must be closed

Again, something a good Web designer does anyway. But if you’re one the few people who still leaves <p> tags unclosed, now’s the time to start closing them.

Example of valid HTML:
<p>This is a paragraph

Equivalent in XHTML:
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
