rythemton Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 isn't xhtml dead now they have moved away from it and back to html? I use XHTML convention when I create HTML 5 pages. I find that my web page coding is cleaner. There is also XHTML 5, which is just HTML 5 with XHTML rules added, but I don't use it because I don't know how supported it is. I personally like XHTML. It makes code much cleaner, which makes it easier to troubleshoot other people's code. I think it was a mistake for HTML 5 to allow sloppy coding!

I realise this an old quote, but I've only just seen it. "XHTML5" is not supported in any way shape or form by any respectable authority, especially not the W3C. I personally like XHTML. It makes code much cleaner, which makes it easier to troubleshoot other people's code. I think it was a mistake for HTML 5 to allow sloppy coding! HTML5 doesn't "allow" sloppy coding, sloppy coders do. Are you trying to say every XHTML declared document you've come across is easy to read? I don't see any justification for HTML documents to be strictly XML-compliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
