This obsolete format should not be considered if even mentioned. Use XHTML + CSS instead, if you are allergic to XML. With properly written XHTML and customizable CSS user can do what ever he wishes with the files and the things are still as they should be.
I've heard some mobile devices with limited memory aren't able to parse XHTML files. Someone using an older browser may not either, plus the CSS may not even be of any use to them. I don't see why we should exclude these people. HTML has its uses just like XHTML, XML and PDF do. The ideal would be to have the texts in an XML-based format so transforming to standards-compliant HTML (and XHTML/PDF) is trivial. An XML->HTML converter could then be written by anyone who cares enough about it to do so. Cheers, Holden
