What a refreshing change! A poster who lurks first, writes clearly, and
responds politely! I was about to give up hope...
A well-behaved gentleman like yourself would be welcome in most any
technical discussion you'd care to contribute to. You might also want to
visit/lurk/participate at c.i.w.a.html, if you're not already.
One of the multitude of articles and discussions regarding XHTML is
sitting in my bookmarks (from 2005):
http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200501/the_perils_of_using_xhtml_properly/
(which URL which probably wrap). That article comes from a different
direction, but touches on some of the issues to consider. Be sure to
read through the comments.
I haven't had need to touch XHTML so I stay with HTML 4.01 strict.
