Not for me it doesn't (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US;
rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070603 Fedora/2.0.0.4-2.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.4). Both
render in standards mode for me.
Hmm, that might have been some unfortunate line wrapping - it's
probably better to write:
javascript:s='<?>';for(i=0;i<1006;++i)s+='%20';window.location='data:text/html,'+s+'<!doctype%20html><script>document.write(document.compatMode)</script>'
javascript:s='<?>';for(i=0;i<1007;++i)s+='%20';window.location='data:text/html,'+s+'<!doctype%20html><script>document.write(document.compatMode)</script>'
where each should be one line with no spaces. Then I get the
CSS1Compat/BackCompat difference when just copying those into the
location bar, in "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.4)
Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4" and "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686;
en-US; rv:1.9a6pre) Gecko/20070618 Minefield/3.0a6pre".
(IE7 and Opera 9 don't appear to have any limit on how early the
doctype should appear.)
