Dear Darrell, Unfortunately the snippet you found only means that the page uses a format that was standardized by W3C, in this case XHTML 1. All web pages use a similar declaration regarding the language used to code the pages. W3C develops web standards but may not help you identify who created a web page or site, or how it was created.
