<h1>Public Text of the HTML 2.0 Specification</h1>

<p> The HTML 2.0 specification includes both machine-readable public
    text -- SGML "code" if you will -- and human-readable text.
    The public text includes the DTD, an SGML declaration, and a version
    of the ISO Added Latin 1 entity set.

<h2>The Public Text</h2>

<dl>

<DT>The HTML DTD
<DD>The text of the SGML
DTD for HTML
<ul>
<li> <A HREF="html.dtd">The full DTD</A>, and
     <A HREF="html-s.dtd">Strict</A> version
<li> <A HREF="html-1.dtd">Level 1 features</A>, and
     <A HREF="html-1s.dtd">Strict</A> version
</ul>

<h2><a name="sep22">Changes in the 21 Sep 1995 Revision</A></h2>

<ul>
<li> added exception -(META|LINK) to TITLE

<li> typos (an->and, emphais, substituable metainfo->meta-inf)

<li> catalog: no more level 0

<li> catalog: 72 char line limit
</ul>


<h2><a name="aug4">Changes in the 04 August 1995 Revision</A></h2>
<ul>

<li>forms: fixed typo, info on multiple values, as per <a
href="http://www.acl.lanl.gov/HTML_WG/html-wg-95q2.messages/1546.html">Paul
Burchard's suggestion at Sun, 16 Jul 95 20:10:35 EDT</A>.

<li>Terms: revised URI, base URI definitions a bit as a result of <a
href="http://www.acl.lanl.gov/HTML_WG/html-wg-95q3.messages/0242.html">BASE
thread on html-wg</A>.

<li>BASE: restored some old wording about base, as per
<pre>
Message-Id: <9508041145.AA13604@plato.ansa.co.uk>
From: Owen Rees <rtor@ansa.co.uk>
Subject: Re: Is this use of BASE kosher?
</pre>

<li>Public Identifiers: s/should/must/, since user agents are only
required to support the lists declarations, conforming documents
<em>must</em> use them.

<li>Removed URI defintion from DTD, since it's in the prose of
the spec.

<li>Fixed REL/REV linktypes as per
<a href="http://www.acl.lanl.gov/HTML_WG/html-wg-95q3.messages/0171.html">
Roy Fielding's suggestion</A>

<li>Revised hyperlink section, especially treatment of base URI.

<li>Updated references, since [RELURL] is now RFC1808

</ul>

<h2> Changes in the 29 March 1995 Revision </h2>
<ul>
<li> Updated Author info (hal.com -> w3.org)
<li> fixed typo in META comment
</ul>

<h2> Changes in the 6 Feb  1995 Revision </h2>

</ul>

<h2> Changes in the 27 Jan 1995 Revision </h2>

<p> <em>My release-testing tools have suffered some
    bit-rot, and so this release is not as well tested as some of
    the previous ones. I have had some reports of problems with the
    level 0 mode of the DTD.</em>

<ul>

<li> Format to <72 chars for RFC style.

<li> Fix some parameter entities that were illegal, but unflagged by
     SGMLS.  (see <a
     href="http://www.acl.lanl.gov/HTML_WG/html-wg-94q4.messages/0332.html">Non-compliant
     use of parameter entities</A> in a messge from Paul Grosso.

<li> Remove quiryky newline stuff in SGML declaration

</ul>

<h2> Element References </h2>

<p> These element references are an aid to reading and understanding
    the DTD. <em>They are all somewhat out of date. I
    hope to rectify this soon.</em>

<dl>

<DT><A
HREF="L2index.html">Element Reference (Level 2)</A>
<DD> Exhaustive alphabetical
listing of elements with syntax descriptions

<DT><A
HREF="L2Pindex.html">Element Reference (Level 2 Recommended)</A>

<DD> This listing eliminates deprecated
idioms. This is the reference to consult when generating new
documents.

<DT><A
HREF="L1index.html">Element Reference (Level 1)</A>
<DD> Alphabetical
listing of level 1 (no forms) elements with syntax descriptions

<DT><A

<DD> This listing eliminates deprecated
idioms. This is the reference to consult when generating new
documents without forms.

<dt> <a href="http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/html2.0/DTD-HOME.html">
     HTML 2.0 DTD</A>

<dd> This is an analysis of the HTML 2.0 DTD maintained by <a
     href="mailto:ehood@convex.com">Earl Hood</A>. It does a better
     job of showing inclusion and exclusion exceptions than the
     reference above. It's a bit out of date, last I checked.
