Andy,

 

You've got multiple  tags in your output. You can only have 1
 tag an it must be the first element.

 

I see this problem again and again. Apps are build that generated invalid
HTML structures (multiple opening , , etc tags) and when they go
to specify the doctype, the app breaks. Browsers are very forgiving when
running in Quirks mode, but as soon as you specify a doctype, you must make
sure your HTML is valid (or at least that the core rules, one  and one
 block are used.)

We just uploaded some new files that include the jQuery library. Now, all of
a sudden we're getting JS errors. It says "syntax error on line 2" and
references our doctype line:



 

Does anyone know why this is happening?
