The Web''s future: XHTML 2.0

Over the years, HTML has only become bigger, never smaller, because new versions had to maintain backward compatibility. That''s about to change. On 5 August 2002, the first working draft of XHTML 2.0 was released and the big news is that backward compatibility has been dropped; the language can finally move on. So, what do you as a developer get in return? How about robust forms and events, a better way to look at frames and even hierarchical menus that don''t require massive amounts of JavaScript. This article takes a sneak peek at what''s new in XHTML 2.0 and how you might one day put it to use.
