Over the weekend I took a stab at rewriting the rather stale information we had in our language declaration tutorial and updated it to reflect the latest HTML5 thinking. Something I'd wanted to do for a while. This is a similar exercise to the one I did on the character encoding tutorials and related articles. It breaks out the real information into shorter articles and makes the tutorial a set of pointers - to increase usability and avoid repetition of material. I also converted the markup to be html5 polyglot format. (There are few other template innovations.) I basically rewrote all of the following articles (note that the interdependent links don't work because this is in a temporary location!) Working with language in HTML http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/new-language-decl/Overview.en.php (replaces http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/language-decl/) Why use the language attribute? http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/new-language-decl/qa-lang-why.en (replaces http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-lang-why) Declaring language in HTML http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/new-language-decl/qa-html-language-declarations.en (brand new) HTTP and meta for language information http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/new-language-decl/qa-http-and-lang.en.php#http (replaces http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-http-and-lang) Please take a look and send comments to this list. I'd like to send out for wide review and get these published in August.
