XHTML 2
6th August 2002
The W3C have published a working draught of XHTML 2.0. Since the Changes from XHTML 1.1 pages doesn’t appear to have been written yet, here are a few of the most notable differences I’ve spotted so far:
- Lots of new tags, including
<dfn>
for inline definitions (similar to<acronym>
but even more useful) and <section> for defining logical sections in conjunction with a new structural<h>
tag. - Navigation Lists!
- Forms are being replaced with XForms.
- Goodbye
<img>
tag! It looks like we’ll be using<object>
instead.
Unfortunately with the amount of time it takes for browser manufacturers to implement even simple specifications it could be years before we can start using these improvements.
