Some of the key differences are:

An XHTML element must have an XHTML <DOCTYPE>
Attributes values must be enclosed in quotes
Attribute minimization is forbidden (e.g. one has to use checked="checked" instead of checked)
Elements must always be properly nested
Elements must always be closed
Special characters must be escaped
