I have updated my sites doctype from XHTML to HTML5,
I currently have:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB" dir="ltr" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
my question is, are the attributes xml:lang and xmlns still required as I have migrated from xml to html, i’m thinking not but would like to know if there area any situations in which they should be maintained?
Thanks in advance
Have a look at the global attributes.
You should only use the xml attributes if you have aa xml document (http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/global-attributes.html#the-lang-and-xml:lang-attributes)
