@harumphOct 03.2007 — Why do you want to use a form field? Can't you just use a drop-down menu (CSS only) to do the same thing?

@harumphOct 04.2007 — That's where I found this "good read" link above. NOTE: The thing that makes these work is:

<i>
</i>&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"&gt;

or

[CODE]<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">[/CODE]

If you use this menu code with the standard:

&lt;!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"&gt;

these menu codes will NOT work.

@Major_PayneOct 04.2007 — [CODE]<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">[/CODE] isn't a proper doc type anyway.

@harumphOct 05.2007 — I know. But many editors still populate with this as a base DOCTYPE.

@Major_PayneOct 06.2007 — Then you need to redo a doc type the editor puts in. It does make a difference how it is worded. My editor does the same thing if I use its default html file. Now I just highlight the doc type, type strict or some part thereof, and hit Ctrl+J. A new strict doc type is put in. Same method for any other doc type I need.

@harumphOct 06.2007 — Yea. I know. I went ahead and did it in my editor, today. I've been lazy.

My template is now correct. I feel better, already.

Now if everyone will just do what I just did, the world will be a better place.
