Introducing HTML and XHTML

The foundation of the majority of web pages is HyperText Markup Language, commonly
known by its initials, HTML. A curious facet of the language is that it’s easy to pick up the
basics—anyone who’s computer literate should be able to piece together a basic page
after learning some tags—but it has enough flexibility and scope to keep designers interested
and experimenting, especially when HTML is combined with Cascading Style Sheets
(CSS), which we’ll discuss later in this chapter. This section presents an overview of HTML
tags and elements, and how HTML and XHTML relate to web standards.
