XHTML stands for Extensible Hyper-Text Markup Language. XHTML is a scripting language that authors can use to embed text tags into a text document to add structural and formatting information.
More precisely, XHTML gives authors the means to:
- Publish online documents with headings, text, tables, lists, photos, etc.
- Retrieve online information via hypertext links, at the click of a button.
- Design forms for conducting transactions with remote services, for use in searching for information, making reservations, ordering products, etc.
- Include spread-sheets, video clips, sound clips, and other applications directly in their documents…..
How To Write the Opening Tag of an XHTML Element?
When you are writing an XHTML element, you must start with its opening tag, which contains the name of the element and attributes if needed. The opening tag is enclosed in a pair of angle brackets: “<” and “>”.
XHTML element names are predefined by the XHTML specification. You can not make up your own tag names. Here are some good examples of XHTML element opening tags:
- <html> – Opening tag of the html element.

- <body> – Opening tag of the body element.
