The validator sais that the target attribute is allowed in xhtml 1.1, but it
isn't!

An example code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head><title></title></head>
<body><div>
     <form action="..." target="something">
<div><input type="button" name="submit"/></div>
</form></div></body></html>

This document is validated as 'Valid', but it contains target...
