Dear W3C, I am scripting a website in XHTML 1.1 Transitional, this is the DTD: <><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> However I cannot validate any page where lists are nested -- in spite of carefully adhering to the CSS2 recommendations. I should point out that the page looks fine in Internet Explorer 6.0, Netscape 7, Opera 7 and the latest version of Mozilla. After browsing the web, it would seem that I am not the only web developer who has this problem -- many are of the opinion that there is a glich in XHTML 1.1 since there appears to be no way to nest lists according to CSS specifications and create valid pages at the same time. Is this the case? What are the implications for future interoperability if I ignore the error messages? Yours faithfully, Ray Mullan
