Pugzly Paranoid (IV) Inmate From: 127.0.0.1 Insane since: Apr 2000	posted 01-24-2002 19:19 Ugh.... I'm using <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd"> And validator is saying "Sorry, this document does not validate as HTML 4.0 Transitional". It does say a couple of things like "document.write('<small>' + txt + '</small></a></center>');" isn't correct because there is a closing small tag for an unopenen small tag. Are things like that enough to not comply with DOCTYPE?
mr.maX Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Belgrade, Serbia Insane since: Sep 2000	posted 01-24-2002 21:54 The problem is not with DOCTYPE tag. Validator says that the rest of your document isn't HTML 4 Transitional and therefore you shouldn't use that DOCTYPE... Anyway, to solve your problem with ending HTML tags in JavaScript code, modify it to look something like this: document.write('<small>' + txt + '</sm' + 'all></' + 'a></cen' + 'ter>');
