In section 4.1.5:

============================================================
NOTE: > in Attribute Value Literals

Some implementations also consider any occurence of the > character to
signal the end of a tag. For compatibility with such implementations, it may
be necessary to represent > with an entity or numeric character reference; for
example: <IMG SRC="eq1.ps" ALT="a &#62; b"> 

Attributes with a delcared value of NAME (e.g. ISMAP, COMPACT) may be
written using a minimized syntax. The markup: 

	<UL COMPACT="COMPACT">

	can be written as 

	<UL COMPACT>
============================================================

It seems that the first and second paragraphs are not related,
except that they both discuss attributes.  Is there a heading
missing?

Also, in the 2nd para, there is a typo "declared" is misspelled.
I'm not usually so picky, but since I was commenting on this section...
