Hmm.. interesting documents. For those few Newbie out there that have no idea what XHTML is, it is HTML written using the XML control guidelines.

Those documents talk a common issue with anyone working with XHTML. Before I discuss this, I would like to mention that XML (eXtendable Markup Language) was not originally designed to be used for websites, although it resembles HTML 4.0 standard ideas (only a lot stricter)..

XHTML was designed to become the web xml standard. However it is way to early to effectively serve xhtml, since a lot of browsers complain about mime types.

Stick with HTML 4.01 for now, until all the browsers can agree on what needs to be supported.
