Andrew I don't really understand the trouble with I'm using it on website ( ZF + XHTML1.1 STRICT ) and they validate at 100%. Perharps this is due the header used ? Check it at http://it.ioda-net.ch/ I'm working with ZF-1.10 with layout. Bootstrap containing protected function _initDoctype() { $this->bootstrap('view'); $view = $this->getResource('view'); $view->doctype('XHTML11'); } Extract from the layout : <?php echo '<?xml version=\'1.0\' encoding=\'utf-8\' ?>', PHP_EOL; echo $this->doctype(), PHP_EOL; ?> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="<?php echo $this->lang; ?>"> <head> <base href="http://<?php echo (( isset($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']) )? $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] : 'localhost' ) . $this->baseUrl(); ?>/" /> <?php echo $this->headMeta() ->setHttpEquiv('Content-Type', 'application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8') ->setHttpEquiv('Content-Style-Type', 'text/css') ->setHttpEquiv('lang', $this->lang ) ->setHttpEquiv('imagetoolbar', 'no') ... They work great with IE7+ Opera9.5+ FF3.5+ Safari 4+ And it's validate against w3c validator ... -- Bruno Friedmann
