Regarding the advice to use HTML instead of XHTML: isn't this a bit
reckless? My understanding is that support for HTML will soon
disappear; if you rely on this when browser development is heading so
decidedly away from it, don't you risk creating pages which will be
unreadable by most browsers in a couple of years? I've read that
Microsoft are keen to support CSS 2 with the next release of IE, so
problems you're having with it now may soon be a thing of the past.

I've found the transitional doctype is very forgiving, as it basically
allows you to use the deprecated HTML elements while you get to grips
with XHTML. Is this really not a useful solution?

Best wishes,
Paula
