<h2>Abstract</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>This specification defines the HyperText Markup Language (HTML),
|
|
version 4.0, the publishing language of the World Wide Web. In addition
|
|
to the text, multimedia, and hyperlink features of the previous versions
|
|
of HTML, HTML 4.0 supports more multimedia options, scripting languages,
|
|
style sheets, better printing facilities, and documents that are more
|
|
accessible to users with disabilities. HTML 4.0 also takes great strides
|
|
towards the internationalization of documents, with the goal of making
|
|
the Web truly World Wide.
|
|
|
|
<p>HTML 4.0 is an SGML application conforming to International
|
|
Standard ISO 8879 -- Standard Generalized Markup Language <a
|
|
rel="biblioentry" href="./references.html#ref-ISO8879"
|
|
class="normref">[ISO8879]</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Status of this document</h2>
|
|
|
|
<P>This document has been reviewed by W3C Members and other interested
|
|
parties and has been endorsed by the Director as a W3C
|
|
Recommendation. It is a stable document and may be used as reference
|
|
material or cited as a normative reference from another
|
|
document. W3C's role in making the Recommendation is to draw attention
|
|
to the specification and to promote its widespread deployment. This
|
|
enhances the functionality and interoperability of the Web.
|
|
|
|
<P>W3C recommends that user agents and authors (and in particular,
|
|
authoring tools) produce HTML 4.0 documents rather than HTML 3.2
|
|
documents (see <a rel="biblioentry"
|
|
href="./references.html#ref-HTML32" class="informref">[HTML32]</a>).
|
|
For reasons of backwards compatibility, W3C also recommends that tools
|
|
interpreting HTML 4.0 continue to support HTML 3.2 and HTML 2.0 as
|
|
well.
|
|
|
|
<P>A list of current W3C Recommendations and other technical documents
|
|
can be found at <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR">http://www.w3.org/TR</a>.
|
|
|
|
<P>Public discussion on HTML features takes place on <a
