" In this tutorial you will learn so-called XHTML (Extensible HyperText
Mark-up Language) which, in short, is a new and more well-structured way of
writing HTML. "
Hmmm. Not quite. Read the archives for more info.
"HTML is tags - and nothing but tags. To learn HTML is to learn and use
different tags."
Nothing could be more wrong IMHO.
HTML is *not* about tags, it is about *elements*. An element consists of a
start tag, some [optional] content and usually (HTML) an end tag.
Describing HTML from the "tag" point of view leads invariabley to the
invalid:
<b>bold<i>bold italic</b>italic</i>normal
Think *elements* and the above construct cannot be expressed.
This is where I gave up on your tutorial.
