There's one other small problem though: they put XHTML as CDATA in "html" text constructs, while they're supposed to contain HTML 4. And since it's XHTML, they should embed it directly in "xhtml" constructs...

Anthony brings out a good point > http://www.oreillynet.com/xml/blog/2006/08/and_the_winner_of_the_best_ind_1.html#comment-75822 <,

Odd that the validator isn't saying anything about this.

Should it, or is this an edge case that can be difficult, at best, to catch?
