I got all the pages to compile OK except for https://eyeasme.com/Joe/MathML/HTML5/basics.html and https://eyeasme.com/Joe/MathML/HTML5/extras.html All the other pages required changes in them to compile cleanly. The two pages that do not validate use the "semanatic" tag in a non-validating manner. The validator correctly points out the incorrect use of the tag and a careful reading of the MathML specs confirms the validators results. I know of no errors in the validator at http://qa-dev.w3.org:8888/ with regard to HTML5 and MathML. The production W3C validator should be updated with these changes. Joe
