Philip, Frank, Thanks for your suggestions. I have tried including them as much as possible, and for now the result is: http://qa-dev.w3.org/wmvs/HEAD/check?uri=http://qa-dev.w3.org/wmvs/HEAD/dev/tests/REC-SVG-1_0-minimal.html#preparse_warnings On Fri, Mar 02, 2007, Nikita The Spider wrote: > The word "contradict" might be stronger, e.g. "The doctype contradicts > the media type". "Conflicts with" is another possibility. OK.

Right, after a bit of thought, I figured that even though sometimes there may be several authorized media types, there would generally be only one recommended. > You might also want to point people to this table so that they know > what their options are: > http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-media-types/#summary That's only relevant to the case of XHTML, while the warning is applicable to more document types. I'm trying to keep it as doctype-agnostic as possible.

See my comment above, I think I'd rather keep the message doctype-agnostic, or else we're going to need some complicated logic in the templates... Thanks again! If you have any other suggestion, feel free. -- olivier
