You closed the html element without including a body element (which is
required).

Also you are failing to conform to Appendix C section 2.
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#C_2

Also you haven't included an XML declaration despite using a character
encoding other then UTF-8 or UTF-16 (although it is possible[1] that
Appendix C forbids such declarations (and thus non-Unicode XHTML
documents as text/html)).


[1] It is hard to tell, the spec isn't well written here, which is one
reason I'm sticking with HTML 4.01.
