Hi John.
Using XHTML today's like riding a dead horse. XHTML will no longer be developed, at least in a reasonable time span. The fact is that XHTML was designed to be served as application/xhtml+xml in order to make it interact with other markup languages, such as SVG, MathML and SMIL. The problem is that IE doesn't support this mime type. The latest update from MS claims that IE9 will support it, but without checking if a document is well-formed or not. That is, MS seems to ignore even the most basic rule of XML. So, if you want my little piece of advice, start getting used to HTML5. I'm not saying that you should use all its elements, but only to take the habit of writing HTML5 documents. You'll find out that HTML5 is really like HTML4, but with a lot of improvements. bye :-)
