HTML / XHTML / XML代码在不同地区之间是否有所不同？

Question

This is a simple (and probably stupid) question, but across different localizations, does HTML, XHTML, or XML code remain the same as if I were typing it up on a system using the "en-us" localization?

EG, if I have <strong>, <em>, and <font> tags that are generated for an HTML, XHTML or XML document (written on a system using the "en-us" locale, and someone tried to render the document using a system with the "sv-SE" locale, my understanding is that the tags should remain the same. Am I correct in assuming this?

The code is currently generated using the WebBrowser control in the MSHTML namespace of .NET.

Answer 1

Yes, it's the same everywhere, as the standard dictates the names of the tags and attributes. It's the stuff in between the tags and the values of the attributes that would be localized.

Answer 2

If you are coding for HTML5, you can essentially define your own tags too.

<div>Hello</div> = <stuff>Hello</stuff>

You just need to reference the element in your stylesheet:

div { text-align: center; }
stuff {text-align: center; }
