However, once this is re-validated, the new html string is reported as erroneous with the following error: Attribute "lang" exists, but can not be used for this element The Validator is recommending the replacement string, in a document whose DTD restricts the use of the lang attribute. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.Received on Wednesday, 3 June 2009 22:51:00 GMT
