You save more code by using HTML 4.01 Transitional, which allows "loose"
content inside body and does not require all end tags.
If you wish to comply with a Strict DOCTYPE, then it's rather pointless to
use <body><div>...</div></body>, since the _idea_ in Strict is to put text
and inline markup inside _suitable_ blocks. If you don't care about the idea,
you could use Transitional, which does not require the pointless
<div> and </div> tags.
