I just like to keep up with the latest versions of code, when possible.
Once you have written a few pages using true xhtml served as such, I
find it no more difficult than writing a html 4.01 strict page - just a
bit different. I have to admit that it took quite a bit of time to get
to this point. A very real benefit is that it forced me to learn much
more about php. View my perpetual calendar page with script turned off.
The page still works, since the scripts used are server side php. If I
had kept the old javascript version of the page, it would not work with
script turned off. I doubt if I would have bothered to convert the
calendar page to php if the requirements for true xhtml had not
required it.
