I often work with XML, so I know how to load an XML file. Unfortunately, 
other people will be creating these headers and footers using normal HTML 
editors, and I don't want to force them to use XHTML if they don't want to 
or know how.

Maybe I could convert the HTML to XHTML on the fly when I need to.
