.html vs .htm what are the potential risk between the two, if any?

Question

To my understanding the 2 are essentially the same however some text editors might use the shorthanded version (kind of like auto complete), none the less can it be exploited? *fun fact* using the [Tab] button in Linux terminal is a great time saver, many over look it, but it's there to make life a little simpler. 😉

Answer 1

HTML is Hypertext Markup Language and uses .html and .htm as file extensions while developing the application pages or file. HTM is file extension for HTML pages or file format.

HTML extension has been preferred as in most hosted servers or organisations as they want to deal with .html files only while requested the web page. HTM extension files are not preferred for web pages these days.

Which is better HTM or HTML?

HTM and HTML are both file extensions of HTML files.
The only difference is that . HTM is used as an alternate to . HTML for some operating systems and servers that do not accept four-letter extensions.
