Hi Chris,

Your home page only has a single warning, which relates to the line-break in 
your doctype declaration. Instead of:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/
html4/strict.dtd">

write:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";>

or:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";>

Your other pages are simply missing a content-type declaration; why not use the 
same one as your home page:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

FWIW, I use HTML4/strict (because I see no point in using XHTML since it's not 
supported properly by IE, but I still want everything to be as strictly defined 
as possible) and UTF-8 (for non-ASCII support, although I normally use 
character entities anyway).
