Le 23 Jan 2003 20:17:03 +0200, tu as ecrit : >> I have a question about the public text "-//W3C//DTD HTML//EN": which DTD >> should be associated with it ? > >I don't think that public id exists. "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN" would be >HTML 2, though. That's what I understand from http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list >> I would expect it to mean "the latest HTML recommandation", is it right ? >> So which one would it be, XHTML 1.0 ? Strict or transitional ? > >Why would you expect this? Because the Debian package that contains the HTML DTD (sgml-data) used to contain the following lines in its catalog: -- generalized HTML reference, meaning 'latest HTML recommendation' -- -- aka, what is published at http://www.w3.org/TR/html -- PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML//EN" xml/1.0/xhtml1-strict.dtd DTDDECL "-//W3C//DTD HTML//EN" xml/1.0/xhtml1.dcl PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML//EN" xml/1.0/xhtml1-strict.dtd DTDDECL "-//W3C//DTD XHTML//EN" xml/1.0/xhtml1.dcl Is there anything wrong using these ids, or are they just "non-official" ?
