Aye. However, if you want to satisfy the HTML Nazis, it's a good idea to put in a DOCTYPE line as the first line in an HTML doc. Kind of like so: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";> (old stuff, non-closed <li> or <p> elements, you know) <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";> (more strict; must be XML as well as HTML, more of a pain to write by hand, but allows more extensive validation) There are a few more doctypes, but that's a place to start. -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - [email protected] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
