XHTML is a re-creation of HTML based on
XML, the Extensible Markup Language, which
gives the web developer greater control and portability
of the data displayed.
This reference helps web designers become more familiar
with the "X" in XHTML, learn how to convert HTML
to XHTML and learn how to best use the new
concepts and tools available with XHTML and
XML. It also helps web developers incorporate
multimedia, graphic, forms (XForms), scripts,
Cascading Style Sheets, Extensible Stylesheet
Language and advanced linking
techniques into their XHTML documents.
The reference also contains a list and
descriptions of XHTML elements and attributes.
An interesting chapter in the book looks at the
future of XHTML and its impact on content creators,
graphic designers and programmers.
Familiarity with HTML will make the book
easier to understand and expedite the learning process.
New Riders'
