khmerang.com — "In no particular order 55 reasons for me to do “tableless” websites using valid XHTML for markup, CSS for layout and Flash sparingly, only as an ingredient." - I think it's a nice list to begin a discussion with (as if it was needed, heh!).

The only reason I could think that XHTML could break any kind of web application is if it was coded wrong to begin with. I recently went through this with our web developers who swore up and down the reason their code was breaking was because of XHTML. In a sense they were correct because they were declaring IE specific element tags. Once they used standards-compliant code, problem solved. I often find it is web developers who have the most issue with standards compliancy and fight it tooth and nail--at least that's how it is in our shop--because they don't want to have to learn anything other than what they did during their Microsoft Certification class. As a matter of fact, he went right to the Microsoft site to research the problem, who of course didn't have the solution.
