    Some difference between HTML and XML are...

    1.HTML was designed to display data with focus on how data looks while XML was designed to be a software and hardware independent tool used to transport and store data, with focus on what data is.

    2.HTML is a markup language itself while XML provides a framework for defining markup languages.

    3.HTML is a presentation language while XML is neither a programming language nor a presentation language.

    4.HTML is case insensitive while XML is case sensitive.

    5.HTML is used for designing a web-page to be rendered on the client side while XML is used basically to transport data between the application and the database.

    XML is not a replacement for HTML.
    XML and HTML were designed with different goals:

    XML was designed to describe data and to focus on what data is.
    HTML was designed to display data and to focus on how data looks.

    HTML is about displaying information, XML is about describing information.

    HTML describes presentation and XML describes content. An HTML document rendered in a web browser is human readable. XML is aimed toward being both human and machine readable.

    HTML would define the format and layout (with the use of CSS) of what you want to 'layout' and XML would carry the content or 'Data' that you would use within the HTML.

    HTML evolved better because it was easy to use for a website design, but XML is having more features and functions as compared to HTML.

    You're better off storing data separately, like in a database, and then having the web application retrieve and format the data as HTML.

    XML is abbreviated as Extensible Markup Language that was developed to retain the flexibility and power of HTML language while reducing the most of the complexity. HTML is a markup language for displaying the text and documents across different platforms and machine. While HTML is widely used language for creating a web page.

    HTML

    HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language which is a language used to describe the structure of a web page. It consists of various HTML element which is composed of HTML tags and their content.

    HTML is a hypertext language so we can create a chain of links of documents. The current version of HTML is HTML5. HTML is static and it can ignore small errors and in it, closing tags are not necessary.

    Let us see an example of HTML

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>GeeksforGeeks</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1>
    <p>A Computer Science portal for geeks</p>
    </body>
    </html>

    XML

    XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language which is a language used to transfer data not to structure data. It is dynamic and it reports all errors and in its closing tags are necessary. It is basically a textual data format with strong support via Unicode for different human languages.

    Let us see an example of XML

    <?xml version = "1.0"?>
    <contactinfo>
    <address category = "college">
    <name>G4G</name>
    <College>Geeksforgeeks</College>
    <mobile>2345456767</mobile>
    </address>
    </contactinfo>
