The date of the chart is the same as the date of the article -- 15th November 2007. It is in gray at top. XHTML seems like the best choice for you. I teach at the college level, and this is what we tell our students. Why? Well, you've heard a lot about Web 2.0 technology being driven by AJAX? Well AJAX stand for Asynchronous JavaScript and... XHTML. The "X" in both stands for eXtensible. Another reason, is that XHTML is pretty much HTML with some XML concepts included. I don't think we're going backwards to straight HTML, but learn XHTML and you learn HTML too. Finally, avoid straight XML for now (and leave AJAX for later too). XML is different than what you need to create web pages. Good question. Best of luck and success. Scott Hi Dan -

However, I'd like to find out as a beginning web designer if I should bother studying XHTML (I am quite familiar with HTML but haven't put up a website yet, or should I just go right into XML? Is XML supported by the browsers of the past 2 or 3 years, or only the latest versions? My first intention is to try affiliate marketing, and then go into other applications of web design.
