In HTML 4.01, there is supposed to be a DOCTYPE definition at the top of each document (before the <html>). It looks like this: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";> This defines a strict HTML syntax, which lets you use all HTML 4.01 elements and attributes, except those that have been deprecated. You can use the deprecated elements via s/strict.dtd/loose.dtd/. Naturally, things typically work just fine if you leave it out. _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl
