Dialect differences
Both HTML and TXT are file formats, so what differs below is how each one chooses to represent a value.
| Property | in HTML | in TXT |
|---|---|---|
| identifiers | Attribute values in quotes; entities for reserved characters | None by convention |
| dates | Whatever text was rendered | Whatever the writer produced; no convention is guaranteed |
| binary | data: URIs inside src attributes | Not supported |
| separator | Tags, not delimiters | Whatever was chosen - often fixed column widths |
| encoding | Declared in a meta charset tag or the HTTP header | No declaration - UTF-8 works only with a BOM |
| typing | None | None - every field is text |
| shape | Free form; tables are row/column structures inside markup | Free form; a parser has to be told the layout |
