At the least xmlns attributes should be added to that serialisation. On the topic of XML literals: it is obvious that RDFa in HTML content must be parsed with an HTML parser into a DOM. This parsing algorithm is defined in HTML5. From this DOM, HTML5 also defines an XML serialisation. So serialising any malformed markup into an XMLLiteral should be no problem, because the HTML parsing algorithm will have ‘fixed it up’ into a well-formed DOM tree. On a side note, I do not think putting serialised HTML into a string is a good idea, display of such strings will include markup unless some kind of content sniffing is done on the output, which is undesirable. Using the textContent in such cases would be much better. ~Laurens -- Note: New email address! Please update your address book. ~~ Ushiko-san!
