One of the oldest sections of the Ask Felgall web site is the series of reference pages on XHTML 1.0. Of corse its having been there for over seven years doesn’t mean that the information those pages contain are not still useful since the XHTML 1.0 standards are still the same today as they were back then. More recently I also added a page identifying some of what changed between XHTML 1.0 and XHTML 1.1.

1. Defining an HTML Document
   How to define an XHTML document.
2. Describing your document
   The head block of your XHTML document.
3. Core Attributes
   Core attributes you can use with many XHTML tags.
4. General Formatting
   Basic XHTML tags.
5. Images and Links
   How to attach images and link from one document to another.
6. Lists
   Defining ordered lists, bulleted lists, and definition lists
7. Forms
   The many field types that can be used in XHTML forms.
8. Tables
   Useful for tabular data (but should no longer be used for layout).
9. Sound and Motion
   Embeddinging multimedia files into your document.
10. Frames
    XHTML has a separate DTD just for frames.
11. Stylesheets
    Once you have defined your page content using XHTML you then need to define how it looks.
12. Compatibility Issues
    Ensuring that your XHTML will work with older as well as newer browsers.
13. XHTML 1.1
