HTML and XHTML

                                           HTML and XHTML

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the language used to create web page
documents. The updated version, XHTML (eXtensible HTML) is essentially
the same language with stricter syntax rules.

(X)HTML is not a programming language; it is a markup language, which
means it is a system for identifying and describing the various components of
a document such as headings, paragraphs, and lists. You don’t need programming
skills—only patience and common sense—to write (X)HTML.
Everyone involved with the Web needs a basic understanding of how HTML
works. The best way to learn is to write out some pages by hand.

If you end up working in web production, you’ll live and breathe (X)HTML.
Even hobbyists will benefit from knowing what is going on under the hood.
The good news is that it’s simple to learn the basics.
