- Description
- An HTML file is a webpage coded in HTML that can be displayed in a web browser. It is used to format text, tables, images, and other content that is displayed on a webpage. HTML files are widely used on the web as most pages within static websites have an ".html" extension.
- An XML file is an XML (Extensible Markup Language) data file. It is formatted much like an .HTML document, but uses custom tags to define objects and the data within each object. XML files can be thought of as a text-based database.
