+<h2><a name="abstract" id="abstract"></a> Abstract</h2>
+
+<p>This specification defines the Second Edition of <abbr title="Extensible Hypertext Markup Language">XHTML</abbr> 1.0, a reformulation of HTML&#160;4 as an <abbr title="Extensible Markup Language">
+XML</abbr> 1.0 application, and three <abbr title="Document Type Definitions">DTDs</abbr> corresponding to the ones defined by HTML&#160;4. The semantics of the elements and their attributes are
+defined in the W3C Recommendation for HTML&#160;4. These semantics provide the foundation for future extensibility of XHTML. Compatibility with existing HTML user agents is possible by following a
+small set of guidelines.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="status" id="status"></a> Status of this document</h2>
+
+<p><em>This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. The latest status of this document series is maintained at the
+W3C.</em></p>
+
+<p>This document is the second edition of the XHTML 1.0 specification incorporating the errata changes as of 1 August 2002. Changes between this version and the previous Recommendation are
+illustrated in a <a href="xhtml1-diff.html">diff-marked version</a>.</p>
+
+<p>This second edition is <em>not</em> a new version of XHTML 1.0 (first published 26 January 2000). The changes in this document reflect corrections applied as a result of comments submitted by the
+community and as a result of ongoing work within the HTML Working Group. There are no substantive changes in this document - only the integration of various errata.</p>
