Hello,
when trying to validate a document with an XHTML 1.1
DOCTYPE, validator.w3.org returns the following error:
----- cut here -----
<ul>
Uh oh! I got the following unknown error:
   /usr/local/bin/nsgmls:<URL>http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd:79:5:E: "SYSTEM" is not allowed as a reserved name here
Please make sure you specified the DOCTYPE properly!
    <p>
      You should make the first line of your HTML document a DOCTYPE
      declaration, like this:
    </p>
    <pre>
      <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN">
      <HTML>
	<HEAD>
	  <TITLE>Title</TITLE>
	</HEAD>
	<BODY>
	  <-- ... body of document ... -->
	</BODY>
      </HTML></pre>
    <p>
      Or, if you are using features from <a
      href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/">HTML 4.0</a>,
      one of these:
    </p>
    <pre>
      <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">
      <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
      <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Frameset//EN"></pre>
</ul>
<hr>
  <p>
    Sorry, I can't validate this document.
  </p>
----- cut here -----
My document begins with:
----- cut here -----
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="nl">
----- cut here -----
The URL is:
----- cut here -----
http://www.nl.linux.org/~gerrit/test/v5.1/ (site in development)
----- cut here -----
Is this a bug in the validator or is it my fault?
I hope you can help me validating my document!
regards,
Gerrit.
