Internet Explorer and old browsers don't have much difficulties to read XHTML documents beacause they render them as HTML ones. As XHTML 1.0 can be served as text/html no problems. The only problem can be the attributes of forms (selected="selected",...) but that the only one I can see.
But Internet Explorer and old browsers have some problem with CSS. But not all the properties. It is possible to create full XHTML + CSS pages that work perfectly in IE.
Moreover should the good evolutions of the Web be stopped because one of the biggest and richest companies of the World don't want to create a software that can support standards older of years ? The alternativves exists and are free so no excuse to don't leave old browsers and Internet Explorer. Opera, Konqueror, Safari, Mozilla family,... make your choice. Moreover if old browsers (lynx, w3m,...) don't support CSS : no problem if your site is semantically well done. The information is accessible and that is the main point.
Should the Web be construct on mistakes of Microsoft and Netscape company who tried to poluate the HTML with their own tags ? No ! When you build a house on an old one you sometimes have to destroy old walls or your house will fall. That's the same thing for the Web. It is now in danger and we have to destroy old walls to build new ones. No more "Internet Explorer only", "You need Windows 98 or much to visit this site", "You don't have Shockwave Macromedia released one month ago to visit this empty site", marque, blink,.htc, filter:,...
So yes XHTML + CSS is possible and are the future of the web. We don't have to wait Microsoft for enhanced (in a good way) the Web.
Netscape 4.77 ? Woooow ! I believed only stupid firms used it:)
Please uninstall this horrible browser. It is one of the worst piece of software ever made.
I don't know where Firefox os buggy or mis-feature. You will explain us.
If you don't want Firefox, try Opera, Konqueror, or gecko browsers (Galeon, epiphany,....)

Why You Should Use XHTML
·
· Score: 3, Interesting
So you say that website with tables used for design are more easy to read ? Are you sure ? Have you ever work on the website of another person, company, project using table for design ? It sis totally impossible to maintain it without losing much time.
Now about the goal of a website, it is not to look good but to provide information. Now if it look beautiful too it is better. But information is the main point and accessibility - I mean information for everybody (blind persons, persons using their mobile phone,...) With tables for design accessibiliy is not possible
Foolow this link http://www.humanfactors.com/downloads/chocolateaud io.asp and listen what a blind person can ear when a website use unecessary tables.
Moreover XHTML is more easily readable than XHTML for web-engine. With the separation of content and design you win lot's of bandwidth. Etc.
All my websites now use XHTML and CSS and I am very happy with this. It work perfectly and I win so much time than bfore using tables. I can change the look of all my website by changing one file. Do this with table and without server languages (PHP,ASP,...).

XHTML rox ! CSS rox ! HTML will die slowly
id and name the same ?
No ! "id" represent an item of your page and "name" the name used to transfer the data in the HTTP request. It is totally different !
blink is possible with CSS.
The porn sites are saved \o/
For the gnumakefile, it is pobably because Internet Explorer existed in Unix few years ago.
