I'm familiar with the concept of XHTML, I'm sorry I didn't make that
clear. I just haven't been using it much, and it is a new skill-set for
me.
What I am unfamiliar with is the issue you mentioned, namely
"...creating HTML4 single attributes and never XHTML compliant ones..."
I am not sure what you mean by this, and you seem to indicate that there
are other problems with creating XHTML producing Page Templates as well.
Could you explain what the issues are with using Page Templates to
create XHTML?
Thanks,
Michael.
