Hi,

I am working on refactoring some pages of my project that were initially developed with HTML 4 standard to HTML 5.

Currently the top of the pages has the following DOCTYPE statement:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" >
Should I remove this line of code to make the page conform to the HTML 5 standard?

Also, the top tag HTML of the page(s) does not have the [lang="en"] attribute. Do HTML 5 pages require it? As for example:
<html lang="en">
TIA
