Hey everyone. I have been reading about XML and I understand what it is, but I just don't understand what the point of it it. I code my webpages in XHTML just because it is more strict and requires cleaner code which, in theory, makes the webpage load faster. However, I don't understand what the point is of using XML and then a XSTL style sheet just to put info on the web. Wouldn't it be easier to just use HTML or XHTML? There is probably a logical reason, but I don't understand it. Thanks for the info in advance.

XML is the acronym for Extensible Markup Language. This language display the text information in standard form. It is created to store the information and to transport. XML is created to be self-descriptive.
