A simple home page
This is a simple home page illustrating the use of XHTML version 1.0.
XHTML
is not a whole lot different from HTML. It includes all
of the usual tags such as the anchor tag for hypertext
references (links) and images. Tables are still a part of
the specification, but they are not necessarily intended
for formatting purposes.
The transition from HTML to XHTML is simple as long as you keep in mind a number of things. First, make sure you take into account the six rules for XML syntax. Second, shy away from using stylistics tags (elements) such as bold, italics, and especially font. Third, make liberal use of the div and span elements. When used in conjunction with CSS files, you will be able to easily position and format entire blocks of text on the screen.
