Description
Following changes are needed to generate these pages as valid HTML5 pages 

1) Value for <meta> tag attribute name is invalid and need to be updated. As per the legal metadata names listed at http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/MetaExtensions it should be updated to "dc.created".

2) The name attribute in <a> tag is obsolete in HTML5. Update it to use the id attribute. 

3) The cellpadding, cellspacing, border and summary attributes of the <table> tag are obsolete. For cellpadding, cellspacing and border use CSS to controll the style. Remove the summary attribute on the <table> tag.

4) The type attribute on the <li> tag is obsolete. Use CSS instead.
