Well sort of. If you look at the actual document on the site you will probably find it contains an XHTML doctype even now. The thing is that the CMS build system as Dave has designed it will strip most of the header matter out of the file and replace it with a generic one supplied by a template. > > If that's not the problem >> then you need to refresh your pages as they >> are identical on the server. >> >> As to why the doctype is different from the original >> document, that's probably due to the way Dave worked >> out the templates for the site.

Well I can't advise you how to proceed from here, only point out that there is some impedance mismatch between how your site builds work and what's actually in these documents. The choice seems to be either standardize all the documents on a common doctype or have the perl code pull the doctype out of the original document if it exists and pass it along to the template as an argument. You might even be better off just not supplying a doctype at all and letting the browser figure it out.
