> I was wondering if it causes any HTML validation problems for other doctypes?
True. A strict validator for XHTML will flag HTML5 syntax as an error. It isn't a part of the XHTML spec. From my testing it seems like modern browsers can handle this, but you're right, validators will catch it. > If so, we might document that Django's default HTML rendering targets the HTML5 doctype. Makes sense to me. I've updated PR with additional documentation that mentions this.
