If you compare the examples of FXHTML source code to Aestiva you will
notice the difference. FXHTML allows you to write your pages in an
extended HTML command set rather than a meta language which will confuse
the hell out of non programmers.

FXHTML also offers many features such as database handling, bitmap
creation and connections to other hosts.
