What is XHTML?

XHTML means Extensible Hypertext Markup Language it isn't a language as such, XHTML is more of the markup language of websites that a browser reads and renders much like the one you are looking at now. XHTML is the industry standard markup language to use and will eventually replace HTML. XHTML is a combination of HTML(Hypertext Markup Language) and XML (
Extensible Markup Language
) where it uses HTML's predefined tags but uses XML's correct markup.

An example of bad HTML markup

<html>
<head>
<title>My Site</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World!!!
</body>

Altough this example will work in any browser it is certainly not the correct way to do things. XHTML like XML is stricter where everything has to be correctly marked up, this method is also known as "well formed", over the course of this tutorial you will learn the correct way to do things Enjoy.
