Internet programming is leaving the simple and sometime loose programming path of the HTML era. Newer structures are more disciplined, browser and platform independent, and demand a new set of skills and programming knowledge. Using a simple HTML table, the following pages present an overview of the transformations that will soon be used to display this table and its contents. Structures, with X- names, from (X)HTML through XML, XSL(T) and XSL(FO), are presented in programming examples. The result is a demonstration, based upon examples, of where the X-Factor is taking Internet programming. Implications for practice and pedagogy are then summarized at the end of the paper.

Keywords: Internet programming, Internet development, XML, XHTML, XSL
