I insert into Magento template:

xml:lang="<?php echo $this->getLang() ?>" lang="<?php echo $this->getLang() ?>">

Which is taken directly from the modern default theme that comes with magento version 1.7. However upon trying to validate the page with W3C i get this error:

Line 325, Column 10: end tag for “html” omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified. You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to “self-close” an element, that is, ending it with “/>” instead of “>”.

 Line 2, Column 1: start tag was here
 <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

Any idea how to fix this? I haven’t modified header.phtml and don’t have a custom one in my theme folder…

    Does your template include the tag at the end – the end tag for html that the validator actually complains about?
