Hi, The to-be-published version of the XHTML Media Types note allows for any XHTML Family document to be served as text/html: http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2009/ED-xhtml-media-types-20090116/ But as was discussed in this very list [1], this is problematic since the lang attribute (the only one interpreted as a language annotation on documents served as text/html) is not allowed by the XHTML DTDs (but the XHTML 1.0 one). Could the lang attribute be added to the relevant DTDs so as to enable properly lang-marked up XHTML documents to be served as text/html? FWIW, I'm fairly confident I could get formal support from the Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group on this proposal if this is of any help, since this impacts negatively on the deployment of their mobileOK specification. Thanks, Dom 1. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xhtml2/2008Mar/0086.html
