New submission from Ivan Radigales Creus <ivan...@gmail.com>:

The global variable DEFAULT_ERROR_MESSAGE on the module http.server is set to a 
non W3C standard value.

It would be better to use something like:

DEFAULT_ERROR_MESSAGE = """\
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
        <head>
                <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" 
content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
                <title>Error response</title>
        </head>
        <body>
                <h1>Error response</h1>
                <p>Error code %(code)d.</p>
                <p>Message: %(message)s.</p>
                <p>Error code explanation: %(code)s = %(explain)s.</p>
        </body>
</html>
"""

That follows the W3C standards and validates successful on the 
http://validator.w3.org

Thanks!
