add an embeded html document, and it's not so easy: <html>

    <head>
        <title />
    </head>
    <body>
        <p>some content</p>
        <!-- embedded documents are possible, -->
        <!-- though still rather uncommon -->
        <html>
            <head><title /></head>
            <body><p>some content</p></body>
        </html>
    </body>

</html>

Is it legal HTML (or XHTML) to have an HTML tag within another HTML tag? Not to start an XML discussion...

Unless this source is inaccurate, it appears that <html> is not a valid child of the <body> tag.
