HTML XHTML Basic is an XML based structured markup language primarily used for simple mainly handheld user agent s, typically mobile devices. XHTML Basic is a subset of XHTML 1.1 , defined using XHTML Modularization including a reduced set of modules for document structure, images, forms, basic tables, and object support. XHTML Basic is suitable for mobile phone s, Personal Digital Assistant PDA s, pager s, and Interactive television settop boxes . It will replace Wireless Markup Language WML and C HTML as more compliant user agents are developed. One large advantage XHTML Basic has over WML and C HTML is that XHTML Basic pages can be rendered differently in web browser s and on handhelds, without the need for two different versions of the same page. In 2006, the specification was revised to version 1.1. Six new features have been incorporated into the language in order to better serve the small device community.
