Hi Philip, You don't have to use XHTML when authoring JSP in XML syntax. You can still use regular HTML tags by putting them in CDATA sections.
Yes, if you are sending XHTML to a browser it will break should it not support XHTML. Current versions of Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Netscape, and Opera should be fine with XHTML. Old browsers with plain HTML support will have a rough time supporting your pages. I know personally if you use XHTML you will lose all support for early netscape versions, 4.x and below, as well as have content that looks a little funky on the early IE versions. But if backwards support isn't a concern you'll be fine using just XHTML. Jayson Falkner [EMAIL PROTECTED] Philip M.
