I've never put a DocType in my HTML pages (actually they are .asp). I just check validator.w3.org/ and found that I need to do that first. I have checked out several posting here on this topic but they are quite old. There are so so many different doctypes and need to know which to you. Here are a few they say that are common but I just can't understand all the mambo jumbo. Can someone help me on which is most common and suitable TODAY. I am using HTML and have asp scripts and my page is save as .asp. Please help. Here are some of the common ones they mention: 2) HTML 4.01 Transitional. 3)HTML 4.01 Frameset. The rest are here:http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/doctype.html Also if I use the wrong one, will anything happen or will I be penalized? Please help.
