What is difference between HTML and XML?

sheik · 12-31-2013, 03:18 AM

The most salient difference between HTML and XML is that HTML describes presentation and XML describes content. An HTML document rendered in a web browser is human readable. XML is aimed toward being both human and machine readable.

HTML is a markup language that is used to design web pages. It is written in predefined tag elements. Its primary purpose is to display data with focus on how the data looks.
XML is a markup language whose primary purpose is to transport and store data. It is a language that can be used to develop new languages and define other languages. It does not have a predefined set of tags, and allows the developer to customize tags.

HTML and XML both are designed with different goal.
1. HTML is a markup language used to design webpage, where as XML is a markup language whose main purpose is to transport and store data.
2.HTML has a predefined set of tag elements. XML does not have any predefined set of tag.
3. The purpose of HTML is to display data with focus on how the data looks. while XML was designed to describe data focus on what data is.

HTML is the predominant mark up language for web pages. HTML creates structured documents by denoting structural semantics for text like headings, lists, links, quotes etc. It allows images and objects to be embedded to create interactive forms. It is written as tags surrounded by angle brackets - for example, <html>. Scripts in languages like JavaScript can also be loaded.

XHTML is a family of XML languages which extend or mirror versions of HTML. It does not allow omission of any tags or use of attribute minimization. XHTML requires that there be an end tag to every start tag and all nested tags must be closed in the right order. For example, while <br> is valid in HTML, it would be required to write <br /> in XHTML.

5 Major difference between HTML and XML

1.HTML was designed to display data with focus on how data looks while XML was designed to be a software and hardware independent tool used to transport and store data, with focus on what data is.

2.HTML is a markup language itself while XML provides a framework for defining markup languages.

3.HTML is a presentation language while XML is neither a programming language nor a presentation language.

4.HTML is case insensitive while XML is case sensitive.

5.HTML is used for designing a web-page to be rendered on the client side while XML is used basically to transport data between the application and the database.

HTML and XML are two types of sitemap. HTML sitemap is used for browsers to surf and find webpages on your website. On the other hand XML sitemap is a coding sitemap which is used by search engine crawlers to read through your website pages. XML sitemap submitted in webmaster tool helps to index your webpages faster in search engines.

XML on the other hand is used just to save data. It don't do anything else, as XML is the simplest form of saving data it can be used by mostly all the different languages. This makes it a universal choice.

HTML is used to place different designing elements at some particular place this is used to make your Photoshop design into working HTML.
