[quote]HZR said document type definitions are ignored.[/quote]Yes, we were talking about DTDs referenced by the DOCTYPE declaration, not something that is hardwired into the browsers (and which I strongly doubt looks anything like a DTD) [quote]"quirks mode" or "standards mode" are just that, document type definitions stored locally by the browser which will be used to parse the current document.[/quote]They are just two rendering modes and are allowing more sloppy code. Browsers are just tag slurpers, they are not using DTDs to parse documents. [small](Edited by [internallink=2269]HZR[/internallink] on 05-29-2004 12:19)[/small] Loading...
