I have had a few projects where the HTML was not 100% under my own control and couldn't run in standards mode.
However, in those situations, I did NOT promise the client full compatibility across all major browsers. If this was an issue with the client, I demanded either control over the HTML or for the HTML writer to add the correct DOCTYPES to enforce standards mode. I would recommend this approach for so many, many, many reasons.

"You should always be sure to run your page in standards mode. There are known issues with methods not working correctly in quirks mode (including errors in the selector engine in Safari). " Is there a list of the known issues somewhere? (I browsed the bug tracker but it's difficult to find things). It's not always possible to run pages in standards mode. If jQuery 1.3 will break my quirks pages, I need to know what to look for. Matt Kruse On Jan 14, 8:45 am, John Resig <jere...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey Everyone - > > jQuery 1.3 is out!
