This document introduces XHTML and CSS. It begins with an overview of XML and how XHTML is a version of XML. It then discusses the basic structure and elements of XHTML, such as the DOCTYPE, tags for text formatting, lists, links, images and tables. Finally, it provides an introduction to cascading style sheets (CSS) and how they are used to separate document structure from presentation.

- 1. Introduc)on to XHTML and CSS Jussi Pohjolainen Tampere University of Applied Sciences
- 3. Extensible Markup Language • XML is a specifica)on for crea)ng custom markup languages • Subset of SGML • XML languages: RSS, MathML, SVG, XHTML • W3C Recommenda)on
- 4. XML and SGML SGML XML RSS XHTML SVG HTML
- 5. XML Example <?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“utf-8”?>! <books>! !<book id=“A01”>! !!<title>Designing Web Usability</title>! !!<author>Jakob Nielsen</author>! !</book>! </books>!
- 6. XML Well Formed • XML Declara)on • One root-‐element • Every tag is opened and ended • ASributes inside “ ” • Case-‐sensi)vity
- 7. XML Example <?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“utf-8”?>! <!DOCTYPE books SYSTEM “books.dtd”>! <books>! !<book id=“A01”>! !!<title>Designing Web Usability</title>! !!<author>Jakob Nielsen</author>! !<book>! </books>!
- 8. DTD Example: books.dtd <!ELEMENT books (book+)>! <!ELEMENT book (title, author)>! <!ELEMENT title (#PCDATA)>! <!ELEMENT author (#PCDATA)>! <!ATTLIST book id ID #REQUIRED>!
- 9. XML Valid • XML document is valid, when it follows it’s dtd • Valida)on can be done only, if the xml document has dtd (or schema) • XHTML strict 1.0 dtd: – hSp://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-‐ strict.dtd
