ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are member of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.
In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the national bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO/IEC 15445 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC34, Document description languages. JTC1/SC34 has worked on this project in close cooperation with the World Wide Web Consortium. This International Standard makes normative reference to the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0 amended by the HTML 4.0 Specification Errata.
Annexes A and B form a part of this International Standard.
The HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is an application of the International Standard ISO 8879 -- Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). It provides a simple way of structuring hypertext documents and of placing references in one document which point to another. This International Standard is a refinement of the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C's) Recommendation for HTML 4.0; it provides further rules to condition and refine the use of the W3C Recommendation in a way which emphasizes the use of stable and mature features, and represents accepted SGML practice. Documents which conform to this International Standard also conform to the strict DTD provided by the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0.
This International Standard makes a clear and important distinction between conforming systems and validating systems. A conforming system operates correctly when handling documents which conform to this International Standard, but is not required to operate correctly when the documents do not conform. A validating system is more powerful; it detects all SGML and HTML errors in a document. Frequently browsers are conforming systems whereas authoring tools check for validity.
This International Standard does not define error handling procedures.
NOTE: International Standard ISO/IEC 15445 assumes that the reader is familiar with International Standard ISO 8879 -- Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). Readers who are not experts in SGML may wish to consult the Users Guide to ISO/IEC 15445. The Guide provides more accessible descriptions of the SGML techniques that are used, for example in the document preparation process.
The scope of this International Standard is a conforming application of ISO 8879, SGML. This International Standard describes the way in which the HTML language specified by the following clauses in the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0 shall be used, and does so by identifying all the differences between the HTML language specified by the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0 and the HTML language defined by this International Standard.
<BIG> [W3C 15.2.1],
<SMALL> [W3C 15.2.1], <STRIKE> [W3C 15.2.1], <S> [W3C 15.2.1] and <U> [W3C 15.2.1] element [type]s. The scope excludes any material in the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0 not listed in this clause.
This International Standard distinguishes between conforming documents, validating systems, conforming systems and character set conformance.
A document which conforms to this International Standard shall
<HTML> [W3C 7.3] document element.
The document type declaration may be surrounded
by white space. The document instance may be followed by white space.
White space consists of RS, RE, SPACE, TAB and HTML
comments.
An HTML system is a validating HTML system if
Validating systems conforming to this International Standard shall display the following identification text prominently and in the national language of the documentation:
The HTML validating system identification text is:
An HTML validating system conforming to International Standard ISO/IEC 15445--HyperText Markup Language, and International Standard ISO 8879--Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML).
NOTE: The validating system identification text is copyrighted by the ISO/IEC, but may be used without further permission or further reference to the ISO/IEC.
A conforming HTML system is an HTML system which is able to process all documents conforming to this standard.
Conforming systems shall display the following identification text prominently and in the national language of the documentation:
The HTML conforming system identification text is:
An HTML system conforming to International Standard ISO/IEC 15445--HyperText Markup Language.
The documentation shall not claim or imply that the system may be used to validate HTML documents.
The SGML declaration provided with this International Standard calls for the use of ISO/IEC 10646 Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set (UCS). ISO/IEC 10646 specifies a large number of facilities from which different selections may be made to suit individual applications. As a result it is only practicable to envisage limited conformance to ISO/IEC 10646 as defined in this subclause.
Under limited conformance, the following is required:
The UTF-1 transformation format of ISO/IEC 10646, registered by IANA as ISO-10646-UTF-1, has been removed from the ISO/IEC 10646 and should not be used.
The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.
This International Standard refers normatively to:
NOTE: The W3C Recommendation consists of the current version corrected by the errata. Although some of the errata may be included in the current version, the Recommendation to which this International Standard refers contains all the errata.
NOTE: The W3C Recommendation contains futher normative references and defines their application.
NOTE: ISO/IEC 10744 HyTime provides the techniques required to allow HTML to be used as a base architecture for other SGML applications.
For the puposes of this International Standard, the definitions given in ISO 8879:1986 and the following definitions apply.
HREF attribute value
following the `#' character.
The following symbols and abbreviations are used in this International Standard.
This International Standard has been designed to satisfy the following requirements:
NOTE: The techniques for doing this are provided by ISO/IEC 10744 HyTime.
The set of element types provided by this International Standard is a subset of the set of element [type]s defined by the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0. The set of attributes provided for each element type included in this International Standard is a subset of the corresponding set defined by the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0. The set of element types and the sets of attributes are defined by the DTD provided with this International Standard.
Where refinements are defined for element types and attributes, the semantics are a subset of the semantics defined by the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0 in the sense that the set of documents conforming to this International Standard is a subset of those conforming to the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0.
NOTE: For clarity, and as required by ISO 8879, this International Standard makes a distinction between an individual element with a given generic identifier and the class of all such elements. The class is called an element type, the instance is called an element and the generic identifier is called an element type name.
When an HTML text is transmitted as UCS-2 or UCS-4, this International Standard recommends:
The DTD provided by this International Standard has the following formal public identifiers:
"ISO/IEC 15445:1999//DTD HyperText Markup Language//EN" "ISO/IEC 15445:1999//DTD HTML//EN"
The DTD is typically invoked by one of the following declarations:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "ISO/IEC 15445:1999//DTD HyperText Markup Language//EN"> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "ISO/IEC 15445:1999//DTD HTML//EN">
The document type declaration shall not include a document type declaration subset.
NOTE: The DTD provides an optional mechanism to facilitate the production of conforming documents. The optional mechanism, which is not a part of this International Standard, allows an SGML parser to verify the correct nesting of sections and requires the use of an alternative document type declaration which is described in the Users Guide to ISO/IEC 15445. The Guide also provides descriptions of the SGML techniques used.
In order to use the HTML document type definition as a base architecture for other SGML applications, the following architectural support declaration should be used:
<?IS10744 arch name="html" public-id="ISO/IEC 15445:1999//DTD HyperText Markup Language//EN" dtd-system-id="[insert URL to official version here]" renamer-att="HTMLnames" doc-elem-form="HTML" >
The comments in the DTD which use the expressions "shall" or "shall not" are normative requirements of this International Standard. Comments which use the expression "should" or "should not" are recommendations of this International Standard. Comments which use the verbs "recommend" or "deprecate" are recommendations and deprecations of this International Standard.
The formal SGML definitions are part of the text of this International Standard and are protected by copyrights held by the IETF, the W3C (MIT, Inria, Keio) and the ISO/IEC. Permission to copy is granted provided the following copyright notice is included with all copies.
Permission to copy in any form is granted for use with validating and conforming systems and applications as defined in ISO/IEC 15445:1999, provided this copyright notice is included with all copies.
This International Standard requires a complete separation of style and content.
A <STYLE> [W3C 14.2.3] element may be used in the head of a document as a
container for a style sheet. The style sheet language is not defined
by this International Standard.
Wherever this International Standard describes a possible presentation, eg. as a button, the styling information is intended to provide assistance to the reader in understanding the semantics of the element or attribute. It is not intended as a normative style requirement.
All comments in HTML document instances shall appear in comment declarations. There shall be exactly one comment per comment declaration.

ISO/IEC 10646 does not define all positions. For example, it reserves
positions with hexadecimal values 0000D800 - 0000DFFF, used in the
UTF-16 encoding of UCS-4, as well as the last two code values in each
plane of UCS-4, ie. all values of the hexadecimal form xxxxFFFE and
xxxxFFFF. Undefined code values and the corresponding numeric
character references should not be included in an HTML document, and
they shall be ignored if encountered when processing an HTML document.
