Comment(by brettz95):

 As far as the issues I have found as far as well-formedness and reported
 in this ticket, your patch in #11492, Denis, appears to have fixed all of
 the remaining issues in the ticket (unless there are XHTML well-formedness
 issues I have not found). Someone fixed the <tr/> and "endif" placement
 issues addressed in my first patch earlier on (and my urlencode() "fixes"
 were mistaken and the issue they attempted to resolve were fixed by my
 later patch and even more thoroughly by your patch).

 Yes, there are some XHTML _validation_ issues remaining (not reported in
 this ticket), but that is less important than well-formedness problems;
 also validation problems are not mentioned anywhere in this report. So, I
 think this issue here can be closed (unless you are keeping it open for
 tracking any future well-formedness issues that may come up).

 In case anyone is interested, the following pages address some of the
 issues in text/html vs. application/xhtml+xml, the first of which is quite
 current and refers to changes in Firefox which put it more in line with
 HTML5, which is meant to avoid the few remaining JavaScript differences
 between true XHTML and HTML, and the rest, which contain useful, though
 partly outdated information (in decreasing order of present usefulness):
