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
