According to "Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.1 (Second Edition)" http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816
document ::= ( prolog element Misc* ) prolog ::= XMLDecl Misc* (doctypedecl Misc*)? doctypedecl ::= '<!DOCTYPE' ... You can have at most one DOCTYPE, between the XML declaration and the root element, optionally surrounded by processing instructions and comments. -W On 05/08/2012, Dan Shelton <[email protected]> wrote: > On 5 August 2012 06:29, John Cowan <[email protected]> wrote: >> On 8/5/12, Dan Shelton <[email protected]> wrote: >>> is it valid that a document can have multiple DOCTYPE chunks, like the >>> one below, in one document?
