Re: Error message is not helpful

MathML Torture Test (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/demo/texvsmml.x=
html)=A0  This document is using the very old=20

<!DOCTYPE html
    PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN"
           "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/xhtml-math11-f.dtd"

recommended in the old:

Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) Version 2.0
W3C Recommendation 21 February 2001

instead of using the latest:=20

Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) Version 2.0 (Second Edition)
W3C Recommendation 21 October 2003

which recommends:

<!DOCTYPE html
    PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN"
           "http://www.w3.org/Math/DTD/mathml2/xhtml-math11-f.dtd"
The document can not CSS validate since the old DTD does not validate as XH=
TML.
It would be nice if the old DTD was fixed and the new DTD was checked to be=
 sure that it will validate.

The Doctype being used is:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN" 
             "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/xhtml-math11-f.dtd" [
 <!ENTITY mathml "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
]>


.... which is how I found it. I've no idea where that would map to on the
W3C repositories (although I note it is another /TR/).
