IMO, XHTML is much easier to maintain and has cleaner code than HTML. All elements <p></p> must be lowercase, and you must close EVERY tag you open. <img src='http://www.blah.com/img.jpg' alt='Blah' />
As far as converting from HTML to XHTML, it's not that hard. Also, try to set your standards on XHTML Strict.
Here's how the top of your page would look if you were using XHTML Strict:

I agree with XHTML being easier to maintain, but the doctype isn't right I think... I beleive W3C would complain about not finding an encoding...
I always use
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-15" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">Of course, don't save this as a .php file, since <? is the shorthand for <?php ...
PHP:
<?php
echo "<"."?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?".">\n";
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
