Re: XHTML Output rendering

Thanks Martin. The margin problem is clear now.

What are the consequences of not having the <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//
W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> statement in my
rendered XHTML page?

As for testing, I test the pages using the latest Firefox(with Web
Developer Toolbar). Yes, It's all client based and when I use my Web
Dev toolbar, I can see that It is well formed but without the <!
DOCTYPE... statement. As a side note, I also test using Netscape and
IE....

Thanks,
Chris
