I used Dreamweaver for my page, and it auto includes that line, that code also made javascript toggle not working -.- Thanks in advance.

hackerkts Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Ops sorry, can't edit my previous post. Just a update here, if I didn't put that line on, some of my page front will ugly, eg: become bigger, not in order. Nvm.. I think I'll just give up on toggle.

ToonMariner Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 the doctype can help you greatlt... If you use a strict doctype html4.01 strict, xhtml 1.0 strict or xhtml 1,1 then you will get much better cross browser results. browsers use teh dtd to chose which rendering model to use. A strict dtd makes IE6 use the standards mode instead of quirks mode....
