| That is one of the silliest things I've ever heard. Kid can do work for you (working around browser bugs by using a specific serialization). The HTML4 serialization is likely also valid XML, and the template must've been valid XML, so I don't see any real justification other than "w3 standards [EMAIL PROTECTED]".
If you're doing XML, it makes sense to use XML, but there's no good reason to use XHTML over HTML4 any time soon.

I'd much rather write good markup that can be validated and later manipulated as part of an XML pipeline. That's why I'm happy I can specify the Kid serialiser as xhtml-strict.

For example, the markup in the wiki tutorial uses this syntax, and would not work correctly in IE if not using the HTML4 serialization.
