XHTML Validation
An XHTML document can be validated with W3C's validator.
Validate XHTML With A DTD
Before an XHTML file can be validated, a correct DTD must be added as the first line of the file.
The Strict DTD includes elements and attributes that have not been deprecated or do not appear in framesets:
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd" |
The Transitional DTD includes everything in the strict DTD plus deprecated elements and attributes:
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd" |
The Frameset DTD includes everything in the transitional DTD plus frames as well:
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd" |
