Abstract

Chapter 1 briefly introduced you to XHTML and CSS, and in this chapter we’ll show you how you can author markup and style sheets to create your own web pages. You’ll become familiar with the essential components of XHTML documents and how they should be correctly assembled. As you know, you must adhere to some standards when authoring a document for the web, and we’re going to be following the rules of XHTML 1.0 Strict throughout this book. XHTML is an updated reformulation of HTML, with just a few more stringent rules to obey, and we’ll point out the differences between the two languages in this chapter.
