FYI, there appears to be a discrepancy in the docs w/rt to the doc
type specifying
"Transitional" denotes "Standards" mode or "Quirks" mode.

Which does it denote ?  Note the following from GWT docs.

>From http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/tutorials/1.6/create.html -

        To provide better cross-browser compatibility, GWT sets the
doctype declaration to HTML 4.01 Transitional. This sets the rendering
engine to "Standards Mode". If you remove this line, the page will be
rendered in "Quirks Mode", ...

So - TRANSITIONAL denotes STANDARDS mode.

>From the comments in the "host page" auto-gen'ed by webAppCreator -

        <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//
EN">
        <!-- The HTML 4.01 Transitional DOCTYPE declaration-->
        <!-- above set at the top of the file will set     -->
        <!-- the browser's rendering engine into           -->
        <!-- "Quirks Mode". Replacing this declaration     -->
        <!-- with a "Standards Mode" doctype is supported, -->
        <!-- but may lead to some differences in layout.   -->

Or - does TRANSITIONAL denote QUIRKS mode ?
