Gunnar, you never fail to do the unusual ;-) XHTML 1.0 but served as HTML I'll bet? 😇

I’ve built a frameset 2 days ago: bittersmann.de/cssbattle/col… XHTML 1.0 Frameset, of course. 🤣

Yep. Serving as application/xhtml+xml would cause too much pain, I guess.

Sad, since who knows what could have come about with XML apps (sez me who stayed in HTML WG 'til charter lost pre XHTML 2.0)! But, people have managed it. Pain, yes. But your command of your toolbox is unique and long-lasting. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. my friend!

Yea, it’s sad that @Hixie & Co. never understood the merits of XML.

Today’s a good day to translate this tweet of mine nitter.vloup.ch/g16n/status/1035… “XML is silly, namespaces are silly, XHTML is silly, HTML5 is cool.” Some time later: “We need scope! How about prefixes?” #facepalm
„XML ist doof, Namensräume sind doof, XHTML ist doof, HTML5 ist cool.“ Einige Zeit später: „Wir brauchen Scope! Wie wär’s mit Präfixen?“ #Gesichtspalme

It depends. XML not silly. XHTML not perfect but interesting, HTML5 super powers for almost anything but a document model's rich, meaninful, open, accessible and specific DTDs or Schema aka applied semantics beyond a handful of very few useful document elements. XML is alive.
