Presents your XML AND WEB SERVICES E-NEWSLETTER for September 29, 2003 <----------------------------------------> CHOOSE THE RIGHT FLAVOR OF XHTML Not every development project, environment, or client is ready to make the total leap from HTML-based Web design to XML. That's where XHTML comes in--but it's not quite that simple. Designed as a happy medium between XML and HTML, XHTML represents several levels of transition between these two markup languages. Choosing the right version requires some initial familiarity with the available options. XHTML comes in three flavors: Strict, Transitional, and the more specialized Frameset variety. Strict and Transitional are the two most commonly used XHTML flavors; therefore, XML developers should know the explicit differences between these two standards and employ them accordingly. This article discusses the subtle and crucial differences between the various flavors of XHTML and explains which flavor is best suited for particular development situations. Find out how to choose the perfect middle ground between XML and HTML, and learn where you should place your development efforts in the XHTML spectrum. http://ct.com.com/click?q=fa-FmENQhO3bIUnZ5dFtKY9mYfUeLOr ----------------------------------------
