5.0 out of 5 stars A word from the author
As one of the authors of this book I feel that the previous reviewer has missed the point of the book. Its title "XHTML Essentials" should not lead one to expect a complete or bible-like work.

There are much better and more complete books for those who are faced with conversion to XHTML, such as 'Mastering XHTML' by Ed Tittel, Chelsea Valentine, Lucinda Dykes and Mary Burmeister (ISBN 0782128203).
