I would recommend you this DOCTYPE:
[code]<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">[/code]
You can get more DOCTYPES [a href=\"http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_doctype.asp\" target=\"_blank\"]here[/a]

It doesn't mater what DOCTYPE you have those errors won't go away as your HTML syntax is in fact invalid in some places. To check out any errors with your html head over to the [a href=\"http://validator.w3.org/\" target=\"_blank\"]HTML Validator[/a]. This will show up any problems with your current HTML syntax and ways to correct the errors too.

Also I am moving this to the HTML Help forum.
