xhtml is version 5 of html

as far as i know as well valign has never worked on a td tag. and its never worked for me, and never validated. i was marely pointing out that MinDFreeZ was wrong when he said it was removed.

___________________

sorry I didn't study the handbook :grumpy , I always used valign on <td tags, before I started with xhtml, and it always worked fine...
& I only said it didn't work in xhtml is because when you validate it, it shows up as an error.. BUT I was using it on <td> tags.. u are correct, it is still valid in xhtml on <tr>
and yea,. I put text-top because :top never works for me :P
-- and basically all the people here:
http://www.ozzu.com/ftopic21537.html
did not know either.... guess you should go tell them Natural Problem, err.. cause.

Thanks for the help guys, but I'm afraid none of the methods you showed me are working. I wonder why.

i learnt html from HTMLGooddies.com :S and they taught me to use font tag and iframes and so on. when i did digital media i didn;t learn html i only learnt css, javascript, actionscript, php. never html.

and anyway i would have though knowing a majority of the people here know what xhtml is i would have though they would know what is and isn;t in xhtml. i guess there are some little bits people have missed

demonknight - can you please post your code or attach it or give a link so we can atleast look at it and give you a better answer to what is going wrong

It is not. XHTML is XHTML. HTML is HTML. And, XML is XML.

Tables for layout is an abuse. -- Internet Explorer is unsafe.

it defeats the purpose is it going

html 3, html 4, xhtml

sorry freak ill take w3schools word for it been version 5. xml is completely different to html so its inrelievent to html/xhtml.

Actually, XHTML is closer to XML than it is to HTML, w3schools is overrated, and HTML 4.01 is still a web standard.

XHTML is based on XML, HTML is based on SGML - two completely different technologies, so to say.

What Is XHTML?
XHTML stands for EXtensible HyperText Markup Language
XHTML is aimed to replace HTML
XHTML is almost identical to HTML 4.01
XHTML is a stricter and cleaner version of HTML
XHTML is HTML defined as an XML application

XHTML Is The Official HTML Standard
XHTML 1.0 became an official W3C Recommendation January 26, 2000.

A W3C Recommendation means that the specification is stable, that it has been reviewed by the W3C membership, and that the specification is now a Web standard.

W3C defines XHTML as the latest version of HTML. XHTML will gradually replace HTML.

its not the artical i read where they stated it being, version 5. but its close enough
