HTML
Advantages:
> HTML is highly flexible.
> Interact with CSS, JavaScript and Applets.
> Universal and can be erudite easily.
> As programming languages are usually exclusive to a certain area/expertise where as HTML is convertible / compatible to morph into XML.
> HTML is good in flexibility.
> Can carry out with scripts and applets and create user-defined HTML XML devices from scratch either for embeddable applications, web interactive, scripts, anything.
Disadvantages:
~ HTML is a simple language to most, but poor (Or even the best) markup structure by the user / webmaster can result in multiple browsers displaying the markup differently
XHTML
Advantages:
> Sustainability: Using XHTML now instead of HTML makes any future transition of the website easier.
> Extensibility:
Using namespaces XHTML documents can be supplemented with other forms of markup, such as MathML (Math Markup Language) and SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)
> Compatibility:
Because XHTML documents are written according to the rules of XML, it is not difficult for XML-processing programs to convert an XHTML file to another format (e.g. PDF, RSS or RTF).
> Efficiency:
Once browsers offer support for XHTML documents and the strict rules of XML, they will become faster. This is the price of a quickly but chaotically expanding internet.
Disadvantages:
~ Limited Practical Usage: Currently, there are scarcely any web browsers that offer reimbursement when receiving and doling out XHTML documents; the most frequently used browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer) does not even support XHTML.
Conclusion:
I have mentioned all the important features as well as disadvantages of the above markup languages, even though each has several options, only the real-time website applications choose which one to be used and for what reasons. Choosing a perfect markup language improves a website quality and performance highly.
