Variations

Most browsers use fixed-width characters for XMP text.

This element existed in Version 0 and has been replaced by the

<PRE> element.

RFC 1866 states that the content of the XMP element should be

rendered so that at least 80 characters fit on a line.

RFC 1866 has declared XMP as deprecated

and some current browsers no longer recognize it.

The LANG and DIR attributes are introduced with the

internationalization proposal.
