XHTML Tutorial - XHTML and HTML Relation

What Is the Relation between XHTML and HTML?

HTML (Hyper-Text Markup Language) is the original markup language for writing Web documents.

XHMTL 1.0 is basically the same language as HTML 4.0. But XHTML 1.0 is defined in XML 1.0 syntax. XHTML 1.0 offers the following features:

• XHTML documents are XML conforming. As such, they are readily viewed, edited, and validated with standard XML tools.
• XHTML documents can be written to operate as well or better than they did before in existing HTML 4-conforming user agents as well as in new, XHTML 1.0 conforming user agents.
• XHTML documents can utilize applications (e.g. scripts and applets) that rely upon either the HTML Document Object Model or the XML Document Object Model.
