Sorry, I don't agree. On the W3schools site it clearly says about XHTML:
Quote:
* XHTML DOCTYPE is mandatory
*The XML namespace attribute in <html> is mandatory
This is clearly stated on the W3schools site: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_xhtml.asp

Now, the DOCTYPE is not required to have a DTD, but that is another discussion.
