Hello Paul; you said ..... -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well there is a DOCTYPE but...
If I use IE6 and try the View->Source option I get only a few lines of the code.
But if I then try File->Save As and then view the HTML in my favorite HTML editor I do see the
whole code. But here is the funny thing Before the '<!DOCTYPE' statement there appears some funny
characters.
--------------------------------------------------------
Actually, there is no doctype, if you run the site through the W3C validator the first thing that comes up is " Errors: 703
No DOCTYPE Found! Falling Back to HTML 4.01 Transitional
" ... then it proceeds to check against that.
The reason that you get a doctype when saving is that your IE browser puts it in there when you "save as" and it's an incomplete one at that .........
"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<!-- saved from url=(0017)http://a9.com/wsg -->"
And if you "save page as" in FF you don't get one ...
Sorry ... :o)
Bill.
