RE: Difference between XML and HTML
XML
 
XML stands for Extensible Markup Language
• XML is a markup language much like HTML
• XML was designed to carry data,
• XML tags are not predefined.
• XML is designed to be self-descriptive.
• XML is a W3C Recommendation

HTML

HTML - short for Hypertext Markup Language
 It provides a means to describe the structure of text-based information in a document by denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists, and to supplement that text with interactive forms, embedded images, and other objects.

• Publish online documents with headings, text, tables, lists, photos,
• Retrieve online information via hypertext links, at the click of a button.
• Design forms for conducting transactions with remote services, for use in searching for information, making reservations, ordering products.

• Include spread-sheets, video clips, sound clips, and other applications directly in their documents.

RE: Difference between XML and HTML
HTML is Presentation Language, it is not case sensitive, every tag need not have an ending tag, we cannot write our own Tags.

In XML, Every tag must have an ending tag, We can write our own tags, It is case sensitive.
