    Our test cases for XHTML still work. Can you provide an URL for an XHTML
    document that does not appear to work for you?
    
    
    (BTW, a common mistake is to forget that the DOCTYPE Declaration is
    case-sensitive; you need "html" in lower-case, and similarly correct
    case in the FPI. The right version can be found the XHTML
    Recommendation.)
