13.4.1 Specifying HTML/XML version, DOCTYPE, and DTD
You can change the HTML or XML header, perhaps to accommodate noncompliant code you are using in a macro, or to conform to the requirements of third-party tools:
; HTMLVersion = version used: 4 (default), 3 (JavaHelp), or 2 (old)
; UseDOCTYPE = Yes (default) or No (when writing DocBook entity files)
; HTMLDocType, PUBLIC identifier required at start of HTML documents
; Default for v4 is: "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
; or if frameset is: "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
; Default for v3 is: "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN"
; Default for v2 is: "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"
; Default for XHTML is: "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
; Uncomment and give alternate if needed;
; do not leave blank uncommented:
;HTMLDocType="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
; HTMLDTD, the optional SYSTEM identifier in <!DOCTYPE>;
; default is to omit. If you want to add it back, although it breaks
; "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd"
; "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/frameset.dtd"
; "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"
; Uncomment and leave blank for no DTD (v2 and v3),
Mif2Go generates code that is completely compliant with the W3C DTD cited, for whatever version you select. However, it is your responsibility to use only valid syntax for that version in your macros.
For HTML 5 output, leave HTMLVersion=4, and set the other values in this section as appropriate.
When you specify JavaHelp or Oracle Help for Java as the output type, Mif2Go automatically sets [HTMLOptions]HTMLVersion=3, unless you override this setting in the configuration file.
When you specify XHTML as the output type, Mif2Go automatically sets the corresponding HTMLDocType and HTMLDTD, unless you override these settings in the configuration file:
HTMLDocType="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
HTMLDTD="DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"
When you specify DITA XML as the output type, Mif2Go sets HTMLDocType and HTMLDTD as follows, depending on the DITA version and topic type. For example, for DITA version 1.1 and topic type concept:
HTMLDocType="-//OASIS//DTD DITA 1.1 Concept//EN"
HTMLDTD="docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.1/CS01/dtd/concept.dtd"
You can override the default values; see §15.3 Specifying general options for DITA.
When you specify DocBook XML as the output type, Mif2Go sets HTMLDocType and HTMLDTD as follows:
HTMLDocType="-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"
HTMLDTD="www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd"
