You'd best keep the two separate. Try including the following in the HTML: <link rel="whatever" type="text/xml" href="mystuff.xml"> Now, the HTML can stay as it is, and the XML can be properly well-formed. This approach is already best practice for including CSS stylesheets (using <link>) and ECMA scripts (using <script>), and it also has the twin advantages that many HTML documents can share the same XML if necessary, and that you can update the XML information without messing up the HTML pages. There's nothing fancy about this approach -- even naive web designers already use it whenever they include graphics on a web page (and they often allow several pages to share the same JPEG logo, for example).
