<h2 id="abstract">Abstract</h2>

<p>The <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Basic document type includes the minimal set of modules required to be
an <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
host language document type, and in addition it includes images, forms,
basic tables, and object support.
It is designed for Web clients that do not support the full set of
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
features; for example, Web clients such as mobile phones,
<acronym title="Personal Digital Assistant">PDA</acronym>s,
pagers, and settop boxes. The document type is rich enough for
content authoring.</p>

<p><acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Basic is designed as a common base that may be extended. For example,
an event module that is more generic than the traditional <acronym
title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4 event system could
be added or it could be extended by additional modules from <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Modularization such as the Scripting Module. The goal of
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Basic is to serve as a common language supported by various kinds of
user agents.</p>

<p>The document type definition is implemented using
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
modules as defined in "<cite>Modularization of
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym></cite>"
[<a href="#ref_xhtmlmod">XHTMLMOD</a>].</p>

<h2 id="s_intro">1. Introduction</h2>

<h3 id="s1.1">1.1. <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language"
>XHTML</acronym> for Small Information Appliances</h3>

<p><acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4 is
a powerful language for authoring Web content, but its design does not
take into consideration issues
pertinent to small devices, including the implementation cost (in
power, memory, <abbr title="et cetera" xml:lang="la">etc.</abbr>)
of the full feature set.
Consumer devices with limited resources cannot generally afford to
implement the full feature set of
<acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4.
Requiring a full-fledged computer for access to the
World Wide Web excludes a large portion of the population from
consumer device access of online information and services.</p>

<p>Because there are many ways to subset
<acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym>, there are
many almost identical subsets defined by organizations and companies.
Without a common base set of features, developing applications for
a wide range of Web clients is difficult.</p>

<p>The motivation for <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language"
>XHTML</acronym> Basic is to provide an <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
document type that can be shared across communities
(<acronym title="exempli gratia" xml:lang="lt">e.g.</acronym> desktop,
<acronym title="Television">TV</acronym>, and mobile phones), and that is
rich enough to be used for simple content authoring. New community-wide
document types can be defined by extending <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic in
such a way that <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language"
>XHTML</acronym> Basic documents are in the set of valid documents of
the new document type. Thus an <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic
document can be presented on the maximum number of Web clients.</p>

<p>The document type definition for <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic is
implemented based on the <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> modules
defined in Modularization of <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
[<a href="#ref_xhtmlmod">XHTMLMOD</a>].</p>

<h3 id="s1.2">1.2. Background and Requirements</h3>

<p>Information appliances are targeted for particular uses. They support
the features they need for the functions they are designed to fulfill.
The following are examples of different information appliances:</p>

<ul>
  <li>Mobile phones</li>
  <li>Televisions</li>
  <li><acronym title="Personal Digital Assistant">PDA</acronym>s</li>
  <li>Vending machines</li>
  <li>Pagers</li>
  <li>Car navigation systems</li>
  <li>Mobile game machines</li>
  <li>Digital book readers</li>
  <li>Smart watches</li>
</ul>

<p>Existing subsets and variants of <acronym
title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> for these clients include
Compact <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym>
[<a href="#ref_chtml">CHTML</a>], the Wireless Markup Language
[<a href="#ref_wml">WML</a>], and the "<acronym
title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4.0 Guidelines for
Mobile Access" [<a href="#ref_mhtml">GUIDELINES</a>].
The common features found in these document types include:</p>

<ul>
  <li>Basic text (including headings, paragraphs, and lists)</li>
  <li>Hyperlinks and links to related documents</li>
  <li>Basic forms</li>
  <li>Basic tables</li>
  <li>Images</li>
  <li>Meta information</li>
</ul>

<p>This set of <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym>
features has been the starting point for the design of <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic.
Since many content developers are familiar with these
<acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> features,
they comprise a useful host language that may be combined with
markup modules from other languages according to the methods described in
"<cite>Modularization of
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym></cite>"
[<a href="#ref_xhtmlmod">XHTMLMOD</a>]. For example, <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic may
be extended with an event module that is more generic than the traditional
<acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4 event system
or it could be extended by additional modules from <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Modularization such as the Scripting Module.</p>

<p>It is not the intention of <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic to
limit the functionality of future languages. But since the features
in <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4 (frames,
advanced tables, a fixed set of attribute event handlers, <abbr
title="et cetera">etc.</abbr>) were developed for a desktop computer type
of client, they have proved to be inappropriate for many non-desktop devices.
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Basic will be extended and built upon.
Extending <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
from a common and basic set of features, instead of almost identical subsets
or the too-large set of functions in <acronym
title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4, will be good for
interoperability on the Web, as well as for scalability.</p>

<p>Compared to the rich functionality of <acronym
title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4, <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic
may look like one step back, but in fact, it is two steps forward for
clients that do not need what is in <acronym
title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> 4 and for content
developers who get one <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> subset
instead of many.</p>

<h3 id="s1.3">1.3. Design Rationale</h3>

<p>This section explains why certain <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language"
>HTML</acronym> features are not part of <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic.</p>

<h4 id="s1.3.1">1.3.1. Style Sheets</h4>

<p>The <code>style</code> element is not supported. External style sheets
are recommended. The <code>link</code> element can be used to include
external style sheets. The <code>div</code> and <code>span</code>
elements and the <code>class</code> attribute are supported to hook
style information onto the structure. Separation between structure and
presentation allows user agents to download the style sheets if they
support style sheets; user agents that do not support style sheets
can ignore the external stylesheet. The <code>media</code> attribute can be
used to select the appropriate style sheets. See the section on "<a
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/present/styles.html#h-14.2.4">Media
types</a>" in the <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym>
4.01 specification ([<a href="#ref_html4">HTML4</a>], section 14.2.4)
for more details.</p>

<h4 id="s1.3.2">1.3.2. Script and Events</h4>

<p>The <code>script</code> and <code>noscript</code> elements are
not supported. Usually small devices have limited memory and
<acronym title="Central Processing Unit">CPU</acronym> power.
Execution of script programs may not be supported. Contents
should be readable even if scripts are not executed.</p>

<p>Event handler attributes used to invoke script programs are not supported.
Events are device dependent. An incoming-call event is unlikely to happen
in a television. A generic event handling mechanism would be more appropriate
than hardwiring the event names in the document type definition.</p>

<h4 id="s1.3.3">1.3.3. Presentation</h4>

<p>Many simple Web clients cannot display fonts other than monospace.
Bi-directional text, bold faced font, and other text extension elements
are not supported.</p>

<p>It is recommended that style sheets be used to create a presentation
that is appropriate for the device.</p>

<h4 id="s1.3.4">1.3.4. Forms</h4>

<p><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstract_modules.html#s_sformsmodule">Basic
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
forms</a> ([<a href="#ref_xhtmlmod">XHTMLMOD</a>], section 5.5.1) are
supported. Since only devices with a local file system can take advantage
of file and image input types in forms, they are not included in the basic
forms. Also, content developers should keep in mind that users may not be
able to input many characters from some devices (<acronym
title="exempli gratia" xml:lang="lt">e.g.</acronym> from a mobile phone).</p>

<h4 id="s1.3.5">1.3.5. Tables</h4>

<p><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstract_modules.html#s_simpletablemodule">Basic
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
tables</a> ([<a href="#ref_xhtmlmod">XHTMLMOD</a>], section 5.6.1) are
supported, but tables can be difficult to display on small devices.
It is recommended that content developers follow
the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 for
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/WAI-WEBCONTENT-19990505/#gl-table-markup"
>creating accessible tables</a>
([<a href="#ref_wai-webcontent">WCAG10</a>], Guideline 5).
Note that in the Basic Tables Module, nesting of tables is prohibited.</p>

<h4 id="s1.3.6">1.3.6. Frames</h4>

<p>Frames are not supported. Frames depend on a screen interface and
may not be applicable to some small appliances like phones, pagers,
and watches.</p>


<h2 id="s_conformance">2. Conformance</h2>

<p>This section is <em>normative.</em></p>

<h3 id="s2.1">2.1. Document Conformance</h3>

<p>A Conforming <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic
document is a document that requires only the facilities described as
mandatory in this specification. Such a document must meet all of
the following criteria:</p>

<ol>
  <li>The document must conform to the constraints expressed in
    <a href="#a_dtd">Appendix B</a>.</li>
  <li>The root element of the document must be <code>&lt;html&gt;</code>.</li>
  <li>The name of the default namespace on the root element must be the
    <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
    namespace name, <code>http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml</code>.</li>
  <li>There must be a DOCTYPE declaration in the document prior to
    the root element.
    If present, the public identifier included in the DOCTYPE declaration must
    reference the <acronym title="Document Type Definition">DTD</acronym> found
    in <a href="#a_dtd">Appendix B</a> using its Formal Public Identifier.
    The system identifier may be modified appropriately.
<pre class="dtd">
&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML Basic 1.0//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-basic/xhtml-basic10.dtd">
</pre>
  </li>
  <li>The <acronym title="Document Type Definition">DTD</acronym> subset
    must not be used to override any parameter entities in the
    <acronym title="Document Type Definition">DTD</acronym>.</li>
</ol>

<h3 id="s2.2">2.2. User Agent Conformance</h3>

<p>The user agent must conform to the
"<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xhtml1-20000126/#uaconf">User Agent Conformance</a>"
section of the <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> 1.0 specification
([<a href="#ref_xhtml1">XHTML1</a>], section 3.2).</p>

<p><strong>NOTE:</strong>
Since the <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym>
event handler attributes are not included in <acronym

<h2 id="s_howtouse">4. How to Use <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic</h2>

<p>Although <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic can
be used as it is - a simple <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> language
with text, links, and images - the intention of its simple design is
for use as a host language. A host language can contain a mix of
vocabularies all rolled into one document type. It is natural that
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> is
the host language, since that is what most Web developers are used to.</p>

<p>When markup from other languages is added to <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic,
the resulting document type will be an extension of <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic.
Content developers can develop for <acronym
title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic or
take advantage of the extensions. The goal of
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Basic is to serve as a common language supported by various kinds of
user agents.</p>

Basic Customizations</h3>

<p>An <acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym>
Family Document Type (such as
<acronym title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> Basic)
must define the content model that it uses. This is done through a separate

Modular Framework. The content model module and the
