I've tailored my code to validate in both HTML and CSS, to have acceptable semantics, and to be mobile-ready.
The server for one of my clients displays his pages within a frame (transient doctype). (Viewing the source for the client's pages doesn't even reveal the code I've constructed!) The other client's server appends non-validating javascript after the closing < / html >.
In addition to the problems I've had controlling page rendering, it's my impression that these can affect pagerank. Is there an acceptable way to bypass server-inserted code? (Is it, simply, a matter of finding a different host?) I would surely appreciate your advice.
