Question

To the best of my knowledge this is a valid SVG document:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1 Basic//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11-basic.dtd">

<svg width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1" baseProfile="basic" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
   <rect x="0" y="0" width="50" height="50"/>
</svg>

The document does not validate on the W3C Validator though. I get errors like 125 "content model is ambiguous". I validate through the File Upload option.

How can I make my document validate?

or

How do I make my document valid SVG Basic?

Here are the reference documents which should pass validation (some of them don’t pass).

This is one SVG 1.1 Basic document which does pass validation:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" baseProfile="basic" id="svg-root" width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 480 360">
    <title id="test-title">color-prop-01-b</title>
    <desc id="test-desc">Test that viewer has the basic capability to process the color property</desc>
    <rect id="test-frame" x="1" y="1" width="478" height="358" fill="none" stroke="#000000"/>
</svg>
