As someone mentioned earlier, it depends a lot on your definition.
One possible way of approaching this would be to remove a dialect from the
planet overnight and see what falls over. My guess is that getting rid of
SOAP might cause some sticky problems in the business world, whereas cutting
XHTML wouldn't make a lot of difference*.
Cheers,
Danny.
* p.s. I wasn't too sure, so out of curiosity I took a look at a few front
pages :
Amazon :
<html>
Exxon :
<HTML><HEAD>
McDonald's :
<html>
Anderson (the accountants) :
<HTML>
Shame, I was hoping for XTM.
Curiously, 'View Source' (IE6) wouldn't work with Wal-Mart's page.
Microsoft's :
<!--TOOLBAR_EXEMPT-->
<HTML>
IBM's :
<!DOCTYPE html SYSTEM
"http://www.ibm.com/data/dtd/v11/ibmxhtml1-transitional.dtd">
and just for the record, W3C :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
