At http://www.files.maproom.org/00/18/present.php?m=0004 you can see a
page which looks as I want it to. It validates (using the validator at
http://validator.w3.org/), except that it is missing a doctype tag.
So I have added the line
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
as recommended at
http://validator.w3.org/docs/help.html#faq-doctype, giving the page
http://www.files.maproom.org/00/18/presentrh.php?m=0004. This page is
identical to the other one apart from the addition of the doctype tag.
It validates perfectly, but looks wrong - the vertical spacing in the
table near the top is wrong.
I have tried other doctype tags, with the same, or worse, results. How
should I set about creating a page which looks right _and_ passes the
validator?
