I understand that some mobile devices may not render some of them properly, but I don't think that might be a reason for being removed from the DTD. They add important semantic value and improve accessibility and I don't agree with these eliminations. On the other hand, I am a "XHTML Basic" supporter (almost all my pages are XHTML Basic valid and I teach accessibility in the University). By the way, wouldn't it be great that W3C pages were XHTML Basic valid? Imagine W3C pages being accessed by mobile devices :-). Thanks. Vicente Luque Centeno Dep.
