Description Patrick Boens 2006-01-01 22:14:53 UTC 
I am surprised to see that the xml:lang="..." setting is not supported by the 
validator for XHTML 1.1 pages. Example :

<span class="lastupdate" xml:lang="en">Posted on 2005-12-20 at 20:18</span>

... this causes a validation error.

What am I doing wrong?

For the URL above you have xml="lang:en" which is quite different from the 
example you give here. I guess you simply missed the typo.
