Why is HTML being deprecated?
-
First let's recognize that HTML was in fact a good thing, for it's time (and is still
a good thing for many uses -- like this presentation). There are, however, flaws
that present obstacles to an information based society (pun intended).
-
The data (information) and the formatting (how to
display the data) are inseparable in an HTML document.
-
There is no guarantee, even at that, that the
document will display the same on different browsers.
-
There is no "browser enforcement" of html standards, such as intermixing
of tags.
