    Hyper Text Markup Language is used to build the site, it contains TAG and will build the layout of the site. All websites follow this template
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>
    </title>
    </head>
    <body>
    </body>
    </html>

    Your content will be placed between the <body></body> tags.
    each tag can contain attributes to ehance the tag further etc

    Hyper Text Markup Language consists of pre-defined elements & attributes (tags) to facilitate interchange of text between documents residing on computers linked together on the Web via Hyperlinks. Markup is a term frequently used to describe the HTML language and its constructs.

    You are, of course, correct. But then posting the query here often generates good discussion that frequently becomes a learning experience for all.

    xhtml is capalble of being displayed on mobile and hend held devices like palm tops, cell phones etc..

    Using it increases your overall coverage. It's worth coding all your pages with xhtml as the theory goes that html will soon be outdated, apparently.

    So is HTML.

    As it stands today, XHTML is still plagued with some fundamental problems -- visit http://jp29.org/test.php for an overview. It looks like HTML 5 as outlined here
    and here and a vastly different XHTML XHTML 2 may represent the future of HTML/XHTML -- but not soon, maybe not for a couple of years.

    And XHTML+RDFa (presently usable) will play a big role as we migrate to the Semantic Web.
