One correction there - HTML is *not* XML. It's something like XML, but HTML documents are not required to be valid XML... there's a bunch of stuff like unclosed tags and value-less attributes that are explicitly allowed in HTML but won't pass any kind of XML validation. XHTML was an attempt to make an XML-based version of HTML, but it never really caught on.
