I'm in the process of editing the includes that I'm required to
use...and hopefully it will work with some changes.
In the header document that I'm including...it uses this as the
doctype...print "
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC
\"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\"> ";
I'm under the impression that we're supposed to use this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:v="urn:schemas-
microsoft-com:vml">
especially ":vml" part if we're using polygons/polylines.
So I'm going to try to just use one doctype, and use the latter
one...above...so polygons will hopefully work. Am I barking up the
right tree? Thanks,
Shad
