Can't recall how to switch it to quirks mode...

That comment will keep IE6, and also IE7, in quirks mode. Not a good
thing to do IMO, but that's another matter :-)

I prefer using an XHTML doctype in such cases, because I can do this...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>

...without throwing IE7 back in time unless I want to.
