The context surrounding XHTML
A language is always born in a particular context and it is usually the expression of a need that has been felt at a given moment. XHTML is no exception, and I would even add that we can not understand the value of this markup language without knowing the stakes of its existence.

A markup language
Before going further, you must understand a simple but often forgotten notion, even by insiders. XHTML is a markup language.
