I spotted their description of the difference in purpose between HTML
and XML (the latter describing data and the former being a page
description language) but not the XML v XHTML. XHTML is the standard
by which HTML is merged with the XML standard. XML is a subset of
SGML. Which grew out of...

Strange, I thought HTML grew out of a frustration with waiting for
XML.




Any chance that you and Doc could call a truce? You are both right. As
to limiting oneself to only four "good" agents - I think that you
would have difficulty finding that many and if you do limit yourself
then you will miss many of the opportunities carried by other agencies
(and the four agents will lose interest after four ws anyway).

BTW, at a 'self-help' group for long term unemployed, I had the ironic
pleasure to sit next to a (long term unemployed) man who had written
one of those filters!
