<h2 id="document-type-declaration">Document Type Declaration</h2> <p>To validate as XHTML-MP, a document must contain a proper <a href="/facts/Document_Type_Declaration/C24PSxEX">Document Type Declaration</a>, (DTD) or DOCTYPE, depending on the version of specification followed </p> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd"> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.1//EN" "http://www.openmobilealliance.org/tech/DTD/xhtml-mobile11.dtd"> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.2//EN" "http://www.openmobilealliance.org/tech/DTD/xhtml-mobile12.dtd"> <p>Note that a series of revisions have been issued to correct technical errors in the above DTDs, and the DTD format is more complex and less widely supported than that of standard HTML. </p> <h2 id="mime-types">MIME types</h2> <p>The <a href="/facts/MIME/P8PDYuts">MIME</a> type for XHTML Mobile Profile is "application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml". Conforming <a href="/facts/User_agent/dFEyg2Xj">user agents</a> should also accept "application/xhtml+xml" and "text/html". Many desktop browsers will only validate XHTML-MP at the display time, if an XML MIME type is specified. </p> <h2 id="external-links">External links</h2> <ul><li><a href="http://www.openmobilealliance.org/">Open Mobile Alliance</a></li> <li>W3C Recommendation for <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/">XHTML 1.1</a></li> <li>W3C Recommendation for <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xhtml-modularization-20010410/">Modularization of XHTML</a> as of April 10, 2001.</li> <li><a href="http://www.passani.it/gap/">XHTML-MP Authoring PracticesvteStandards</a></li></ul> <p>§ </p> <h2 id="references">References</h2> <ol> <li id="fn:1"><p>"XHTML Basic 1.1, W3C Recommendation 29 July 2008".
