You're speaking my language tush! It's been years since I looked at any kind of LyX HTML export, but if it's what you're saying now, I might revisit the situation. I think what you're asking for is best handled by a post-processor that modifies the exported well-formed XML HTML5. Easy and fast with a Python program that: * Replaces existing doctype with <!doctype HTML> * Gets rid of that silly <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> line. HTML specs say that the UTF-8 line belongs in the <head></head tag pair as "<meta charset="UTF-8"/>". Like you said, the language line belongs in <html lang="en"> or whatever language you want. * Replaces the exporter's CSS stylesheet with your own. I don't think you want to mess with your LyX styles in your layout file because you WANT your PDF styles to look very different from your HTML styles. This is all accomplished with a very easy to write Python program that will postprocess the exported file in a half a second. If the exported file is *really* well formed XML, you can check it with my xmlchecker.py shown at http://troubleshooters.com/web/validating.htm#xmlchecker .
