@megametalpriest Thanks for the timely response. You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.

@PyroZer0 to be strictly techncial, html is already a dialect of xml, but we just refer to html and xml as different entities because html does not per say have the abilities to use xml in order to achieve greater flexibility.
i realize that this comment was written by you 2 years ago, so I will not hold you to blame for saying html 4.01 is the final version of html by w3c, as obviously html5 is becoming more and more mainstream.

@Xjkjk3264X the difference visually, is basically being more proper aka enclosing attribute values in double quotes, writing tag/attribute names in lowercase, etc
the core difference is the integration with xml that xhtml has. you are not noticing it because bucky only really covers/uses/shows the visual differences between html and xhtml in this series.
html 4.01 written in such style that is compliant with the strict doctype is almost entirely equal in style with xhtml.

No block-level element, including BLOCKQUOTE can be in a P (both HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 forbid it), and in XHTML Strict additional requirement is that BLOCKQUOTE must contain a block-level element, so you can't type only text inside a BLOCKQUOTE element.
And it's bad style to use BLOCKQUOTE - an element that is meant to be used for long quotes - just to indent text, unless it happens to be a quote.

I stand corrected. Very interesting.
So When would you use HTML 5 vs. XHTML?
