Result: Tentatively passed validation File:Cartoon.html Encoding:utf-8 Doctype:XHTML 1.0 Strict Root Namespace: http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml No Character Encoding Found! Falling back to UTF-8.

A couple of W3C pages pointing at the issue...

1: <http://validator.w3.org/docs/help.html#faq-charset>
2: <http://www.w3.org/International/articles/serving-xhtml/>

Putting something like the following in the page head won't do much good
anywhere else, but will usually satisfy the validator...

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


the strict DTD for XHTML1.0 doesnt allow javascript right???

No. All flavors of HTML and XHTML allow for javascript.

Plenty of other potential "traps" when it comes to XHTML though, so if
you want to mark up in accordance with the XHTML standards, then you
you've got no choice but to learn it right and to do it right - all the
way and all the time.

A few hints...

Have a look at the XHTML FAQ for more...
