I am confused. I am trying to validate some html code. I get a tentative
validation with this caveat.
The detected DOCTYPE Declaration "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/HTML 4.01
Transitional">" has been suppressed and the DOCTYPE for "HTML 4.01
Transitional" inserted instead, but even if no errors are shown below
the document will not be Valid until you update it to reflect this new
DOCTYPE.
It goes on to say:
The document located at <http://www.texasflyfishers.org/windknots.htm>
was checked and found to be tentatively valid HTML 4.01 Transitional.
This means that with the use of some fallback or override mechanism, we
successfully performed a formal validation using an SGML or XML Parser.
In other words, the document would validate as HTML 4.01 Transitional if
you changed the markup to match the changes we have performed
automatically, but it will not be valid until you make these changes.
I checked 'show source' and the only thing that stands out is the change
of the 1st line from transitional to loose.
Am I trying to validate in the correct DOCTYPE, 'transitional'?
Under 'strict' there are 10 errors.
TIA
Dave
