OK. But, does that mean the doctype needs to be declared in the application.cfm, or does this not count towards the *any* characters.

Off the top of my head, quirks mode is triggered by: > - not having the URL of the DTD in your doctype > - not having a doctype in the first X bytes of data (not sure of what > X is but its a fair bit) > - Having "<?xml version="1.0"?>" at the top of your doc (or it might > be having it there - not certain) *some* white space is ok, but *any* characters before the doctype trigger quirks mode in IE6. It doesn't matter if it's one character, a comment, or the xml prolog (which is recommended by the w3c but _not required_ for xhtml documents), IE spits the dummy.
