I am developing a website, and I have no web designing or computer programming knowledge. After reading up on web design, I have found out that I should use XHTML over HTML. I was just wondering whether I need to learn HTML to understand XHTML.

Jump to PostLet's put it this way - HTML is a large subset of XHTML - learn one and you've pretty much learned the other.
Jump to PostSo, learn XHTML and CSS and all your bases are covered. - But I've noticed that many of the newer HTML books cover XHTML as well.
Jump to PostIf you're just being a designer, and you're not gonna work that much with HTML, then IMHO regular HTML is just fine. If you want to be a developer, you should probably learn XHTML, since that's going to work much better, and is way cleaner.
