XHTML - Introduction to XHTML

What is XHTML?

As I was compiling links to add to this page, I started reading some of the many excellent pages on the topic of XHTML and quickly began wondering what I could add to the discussion and why I should write my own introduction to XHTML at all... so I didn't! Here are some great pages that explain things just as well as (if not better then) I could have:

Introductions to XHTML
