I have a website ( http://www.zen62775.zen.co.uk ) that I made HTML 4.01
Transitional and CSS compliant, and I'm thinking of converting it into XHTML
to learn a little about it. Which XHTML variant would you recommend? The w3c
HTML validator mentions XHTML 1.0 Transitional, Basic, Strict, and XHTML
1.1. Would I be able to make my existing CSS work in the XHTML page without
modification to the .css file?

HTML Tidy might be of great help to automatically concert your pages. I
suggest XHTML 1 Strict but you may go for something else. If you are
using "transitional" a move to "strict" may cause some headaches now,
but they should be worth it in the long run.

Go to HTML 4.01 Strict if you want to convert something and don't know
what to do else in your spare time.

No. Tidy can be persuaded to do a pretty good job of converting -
if you have a valid HTML 4.01 * document to begin with. Otherwise:
GIGO.
