I agree with Martin on the removal of "declaration" and with Richard on not including xml:lang. /If we were to include an example/, I'd say just use "e.g. lang=xx", as people who are currently dealing with older HTML should recognise the example, while most people who work with XHTML and XML are likely to still recognise it from legacy skills. It is also 4 characters shorter. Richard Ishida wrote: >Hi Martin, > >Thanks for the comments. See below... > > >>- Language: The word 'declare' is repeated.
