l'html or le html/ de l'html or du html also what about xml xhtml

Hi, going through translations I've found two different ways to translate
the article and the word html;

I'm wondering if there is a preference for either:

le HTML 4.01

or

l'HTML 4.01


(also for de l'HTML or du HTML;

also same questions for XML and XHTML

le XML or l'XML??

)

Thanks in advance to anyone who can clarify this.

Bonjour!

Quand j'ai recherche dans quelques traductions en francais des documents du 
W3C,
j'ai trouve que l'on ecrivait, parfois,

"l'HTML"

et parfois,

"le HTML"

et je voulais savoir:  quelle forme est preferee?

En vous remerciant a l'avance de clarifier l'usage en ce cas-ci.
