            Bug ID: 21810
           Summary: Example document not conforming
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: HTML WG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: LC1 HTML/XHTML Compatibility Authoring Guide (ed:
                    Eliot Graff)

The example document in section 11 is not conforming. Using cut and paste, the
W3C Validator reports 11 errors. The reason is that the example contains
constructs like <svg> in text, meant to be displayed as-is, but the “<”
character has not been escaped. Similarly for some occurrences of “&”.

These problems are not present in the version
http://dev.w3.org/html5/html-xhtml-author-guide/SamplePage.html
linked to, but that version has a different problem:
It has the tag <meta charset='utf-8'>, which is not present in the version
presented in section 11 and which lacks the “/” character, so that the document
is not well-formed.
