When was HTML 4.01 transitional relevant? 1999? What are you transitioning from (HTML 3.2) and what are you transitioning to? (HTML 4.01 Strict or HTML5). I would say that if the page throws errors on HTML 4.01 Strict it is broken, and if you are going to fix it, you are best served fixing it to HTML5. > I'm sure that the 232 errors don't need to be designed out but I don't know > how to get BBEdit to show me only the legitimate syntax errors :) You're looking at it the wrong way, to my mind. All 232 errors are *errors* and all should be fixed. > I'd prefer not to change the doctype at all but probably cannot get BBEdit to > handle the orignal one. But HotMetal was a steaming pile of monkey feces. I'm kind of shocked there are that few errors. -- Forever was over. All the sands had fallen.

No. Not much point, really. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
