Jonathan,
FIRST, You are right. My code contains/contained no meta
tags. I know what went wrong *but* I repeated the error.
I was doing something wrong when I ran ftp.
My code contains font declarations and a strict doctype
does not accept font declarations. The first time I ran
the validator using strict doctype, it gave me *many*
errors. If you respond to this message, please tell me
how to access and examine the strict DTD. (thank you)
I went back to the transitional doctype and installed
your two suggested meta tags and now I have *NO* errors
or warnings.
Charles
