hi gurus,
i am modifying a spec for a website, that is being developed by external
developers.
currently in the technical overview it says that "html code is produced
following W3C's guidelines"
i wanted to make this a bit more specific, something along the lines of....
--------------------
The html code is produced following W3C's HTML standard 4.01, with each page
having the line
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
at the top.
This will allow validation using http://validator.w3.org
--------------------
what are the lists thoughts on this?
is html 4.01 the standard i should be using? or will using 4.01 limit the
number of browsers that users can use? should i be using a earlier standard?
HTML 3.2 perhaps?
is this a good thing that i am trying to implement?
cheers,
david.
