As far as I am aware, ISO HTML is essentially a restatement of W3C HTML 4.01, with certain recommendations transformed into requirements, and certain deprecations transformed into exclusions. Apart from that, the recommended DTD declaration is different; but the exact DTD to be declared is not a requirement of W3C HTML 4.01 anyway.
