| 311374 | 2005-01-06 19:16:00 | Hi, My mate seems to think that HTML is going to discontinue :eek: . He thinks that HTML will be over taken because the internet is gettting faster and that web pages can be as images . :confused: . Off course if HTML dies out then the internet browser will have to change to be able to cope, instead of looking for the code to display the web page . Also Javascript and PHP etc all goes into HTML to make a page, does this mean we are going into a new era of the internet, and that programming is going to change . Please give me your views and i take take into account of what you say . Jon |

| 311377 | 2005-01-06 20:44:00 | The only thing I could think of that would take over HTML, would be XHTML, which is still HTML anyway. No, I would say that some form of HTML is here to stay for many years. | mejobloggs (264) | ||

| 311379 | 2005-01-06 22:17:00 | HTML will change and evolve. A good example of this is CSS which was introduced to allow you to define your HTML elements such as fonts, headings, tables etc.. from one file. | Webbase (265) | ||

The original definition of HTML provided a way to identify and mark up content, without worrying too much about how it appeared on a users screen. When commercial interest in the World Wide Web exploded, web site designers saw the limitations of HTML display. Newer HTML definitions varied and were not supported by all browsers. XHTML was created to clean up this problem by using a newer and more compact meta-language called XML. It is relatively easy to add new elements and additional attributes, which makes it extensible and open-ended. Using CSS makes formatting XHTML documents a lot easier. Having a consistent presentation with CSS means XHTML documents can concentrate on structure and content. This separation of presentation from content is the new 'version' of HTML. |

Or ask him how he imagines that the text in pictures will be indexed for searching? How will people click on "links" in images without using HTML to write the Image Map? How will you be able to easily edit content? How can you copy and paste content out of a website and into a text editor? Just for a start, once he's answered all those soundly I'm sure we can come up with more. |
