[XHTML] 1.0 is an [XML]-based reimplementation of the [SGML]-based [HTML] 4.0 specification. Many [HTML] files are not WellFormed [XHTML], but can usually be converted relatively simply to [XHTML] 1.0. Those that can't usually have UndefinedSemantics anyway.
-[XHTML] 1.1 is much stricter than the 1.0 specification and a lot closer to the spirit of [XML] so it can finally bring many VeryCool
features to the table (no pun intended). By being [XML] it can take advantage of the semantics of other [XML] languages discard much of the therefor redundant features of [HTML] (and [XHTML] 1.). F.ex, using [XLink] semantics, images can be included in a documented using f.ex the __P__
(paragraph) tag, rendering the __IMG__
tag superfluous. (In fact, pretty much any tag can be used for the purpose.)
