You are mixing the syntax of HTML and XHTML. I wouldn't be using XHTML
unless I had specific reasons for that. From a pure CSS perspective the
reasons for choosing HTML or XHTML are close to nil. However, if you're
going to use CSS layout techniques the strict versions of either
language gives less surprises and more consistent results. There are
circumstances when it could be adviseable to choose the transitional,
but I would argue that's rare.
HTML 4.01 Strict is what I use:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/
html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
</head>

----and so on

Note there is no trailing "/" in the meta element.
