If you look at the actual document on the site >>>>> you will probably find it contains an XHTML doctype even now. Old OOo pages were xhtml transitional, that is correct. And at least the www.openoffice.org and de.openoffice.org pages were fully valid (according to the w3c validator) CollabNet Enterprise Edition (that was used before Kenai, and after SourceCast (the old name of older version of CollabNet Enterprise Edition that was used even earlier) did as well ignore the doctype and other meta-tags, but merged title and meta tags into the overall templating system. So all pages were delivered as xhtml - of course that didn't make them valid, but that means that they worked for the users and editors with that doctype. > [...] > I think that ssi.mdtext should add a line like: > > doctype: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 > Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> Please don't turn back the wheel of time. If you want to make a unification, then I suggest you either user xhtml transitional, or make the step to html5 right away as default. ciao Christian
