So then with this DOCTYPE:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>

I can put IDs on the HTML element and go on my merry way. Right?

Yes. (My, it feels pleasant to say "Yes" for a change :-)

(FWIW, I checked it in IE6 and it works, despite the fact that IE doesn't support XHTML. FF1.5 and Safari 2 also work, as expected.)

Regards,

Nick.
