Transitioning from XHTML to HTML5 the easy way

Cool, some what slow-going comic about all the different xhtml/html versions floating around and how to go from xhtml to html 5.

So long as you’re not using any of the new features of html 5 (since it’s not yet a standard) the easiest way to go from xhtml to html 5 is replacing the doctype. So you would be going from this:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

to this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
