xhtml in my openion has gone too far. It no longer can do its job for formatting the way the internet is viewed. Depending on weather of not I can get sufficent funding I want to create a new language to replace xhtml.
Web
Structure
Language

It takes all the html tags and compleatly get rid of them all. Then we replace them with 3 or 4 diffrent tags total.
1 for text
1 for a layer
1 for a frame
1 as a root (like the tag)
1 for hidden text (like <script>, and )

Each tag will support something simalar to css and have many atributes that are set with just a few letters or maybe just a simble. They will also have new types of attributes that will do things like rounded courners and custom borders. It needs more tweeking and I blan on makeing a extreamly simple browser to show how the code is to be desplayed.

So, what do you guys (and girls) think??

Backwords compatable browser that can eather run in html or wsl depending on what it detects. I was thinking about proubly having some one elses name on the html part. Like asking firefox or someone to sponcer it.
What do you mean "whats wrong with it"?

I was trying to make the point that there is only 1 tag to do one task. Were as html has 3+ that can do the same job.
