This question about web page ‘inclusion’ triggered my curiosity. The XML allows you to specify a reference to an ‘external’ portion. Can you do the same in XHTML, then?

XML example:

<!ENTITY foo SYSTEM "http://www.mydomain.com/logo.gif" NDATA GIF87A>

<SOMETHING>&foo;</SOMETHING>

    Yes but…

    • It ceases to be XHTML and becomes XHTML with stuff
    • It won’t work with a text/html mime type (goodbye IE) or in any browser which doesn’t do DTD processing (probably goodbye to most other browsers).
