HTML syntax, this is the format suggested for most authors. It is compatible with most legacy Web browsers. If a document is transmitted with the text/html MIME
type, then it will be processed as an HTML document by Web browsers. This specification defines version 5 of the HTML syntax, known as "HTML5".
XHTML syntax, which is an application of XML. When a document is transmitted with an XML MIME type, such as application/xhtml+xml
, then it is treated as an XML document by Web browsers, to be parsed by an XML processor. Authors are reminded that the processing for XML and HTML differs; in particular, even minor syntax errors will prevent a document labeled as XML from being rendered fully, whereas they would be ignored in the HTML syntax. This specification defines version 5 of the XHTML syntax, known as "XHTML5"
The DOM, the HTML syntax, and the XHTML syntax cannot all represent the same content. For example, namespaces cannot be represented using the HTML syntax, but they are supported in the DOM and in the XHTML syntax. Similarly, documents that use the noscript feature can be represented using the HTML syntax, but cannot be represented with the DOM or in the XHTML syntax. Comments that contain the string "-->" can only be represented in the DOM, not in the HTML and XHTML syntaxes.
XHTML: Well-formed is the new concept introduced by XML. Essentially this means that all elements must have closing tags and that all the elements must nested properly.
Element and attributes: XHTML documents must use lower case for all HTML element and attribute names. This difference is necessary because XHTML document is assumed to be an XML document and XML is case-sensitive e.g. <div> and <Div>
are different tags.
Attribute value: Must always be quoted even those which appear to be numeric
e.g. <product id="100023" />
