I'm not sure what you mean exactly. XHTML is a derivative of HTML4
that conforms to the XML standard. It doesn't add anything not already
present within HTML 4.01. And to the best of my knowledge there is no
provision within xhtml for custom tags that give context or semantic
information, that's what XML is for..
And the DIV & SPAN tags are a normal part of writing html now, the
idea being to get rid of the random spew of formatting tags with the
far cleaner CSS. How it impacts the search engines I wouldn't know,
I'm just going based on the best practices suggested by the W3C.
