High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Channel Definition Format (CDF) is an XML standard used in conjunction with Microsoft Active Channel and Smart Offline Favorites technologies. Its use is to define a website's content and structure. The standard is somewhat similar to the RSS standard introduced by Netscape about two years after CDF was introduced in 1997. The standard and Active Channel were introduced with the launch of Internet Explorer 4.0 in 1998, while Smart Offline Favorites was introduced with the launch of Internet Explorer 5.0. Active Channel allows websites to be listed and syndicated with the end-users' desktop. Smart Offline Favorites, like channels, enable users to view webpages from the cache.
