Comparison of layout engines (XHTML 1.1)

The following tables compare XHTML 1.1 compatibility and support for a number of browser engines.

XHTML 1.1 which is mainly a modularization of XHTML 1.0, is composed of 20 element modules (7 of which are submodules), including the additional Ruby Annotation Module, and two attribute modules (Server-side Image Map Module and Intrinsic Events Module).

Explanation of tables

See comparison of browser engines for the full list.

Values

These indicate the level of support for the given item in each engine. By default, the most recent version of the engine is implied. However, a specific version number can be listed; when this indicates full support, it's the initial version of the engine fully supporting the item.

Legend
Value	Meaning
Yes	Fully supported
No	Has never been supported
Partial	Only some values are supported
Incorrect	Not implemented correctly in all cases
Experimental	May be incomplete or buggy
Nightly build	Currently in development; full support is expected
Depends	Only supported for the specified conditions
Dropped	No longer supported
