A bit off topic - but i'll keep it short May I suggest updating the validation best practice text to say - validate XHTML1.1 Strict. I mean if we urge people to do it right - urge them to really do it right - it really does solve more problems for developers than it causes.
Except that sending XHTML 1.0 Strict as text/html is valid, but sending XHTML 1.1 Strict as text/html is not right, according to the W3C. Since we can't send things as text/xml+html because IE is a broken ancient piece of popular crap, that means XHTML 1.0 is as up to date as we can support and still be "right".
Using XHTML without application/xhtml+xml is pretty pointless. I'd prefer a theme based on HTML 4.01. -- Tim Altman
