I use fp2000. I notice my html does not have a doc type code and I think I
am not getting the best ranking because of this. Can I add a doctype and what should I use ? My site www.carpet-cleaning-machines.com . I will also be upgrading soon to fp2003. Will that auto give me doctype ? |

A valid and complete doctype will not affect your ranking, but it will
affect your site's rendering in the browsers (perhaps negatively, if you have used invalid/proprietary markup). Use this one for HTML 4.01 Transitional - <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> -- Murray -------------- MVP FrontPage "basiccl" <basiccl@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:8B6912BD-048D-4CC8-A88F-2830B98E70EB@microsoft.com... >I use fp2000.

If you want to make sure a DOCTYPE is included in all new pages that you
create, you can modify the template: http://www.spiderwebwoman.com/tutor...ypesolution.asp -- ~ Kathleen Anderson Microsoft MVP - FrontPage Spider Web Woman Designs web: http://www.spiderwebwoman.com/resources/ "Murray" <forums@HAHAgreat-web-sights.com> wrote in message news:ul6mtz58GHA.1248@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... >A valid and complete doctype will not affect your ranking, but it will >affect your site's rendering in the browsers (perhaps negatively, if you >have used invalid/proprietary markup). > > Use this one for HTML 4.01 Transitional - > > <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" > "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> > > > -- > Murray > -------------- > MVP FrontPage > > > "basiccl" <basiccl@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:8B6912BD-048D-4CC8-A88F-2830B98E70EB@microsoft.com... >>I use fp2000.

Yes, definately do that. When I was still using FP, I had this in that file
so I did not have to put it in each time: ----------------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252" /> <title>Untitled 1</title> </head> ------------------------------------ Your doctype will vary, for FP you probably want HTML 4.01. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Kathleen Anderson [MVP - FrontPage]" <spiderwebwoman@mvps.org> wrote in message news:ugwMcb78GHA.1244@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > If you want to make sure a DOCTYPE is included in all new pages that you > create, you can modify the template: > http://www.spiderwebwoman.com/tutor...ypesolution.asp > > -- > > ~ Kathleen Anderson > Microsoft MVP - FrontPage > Spider Web Woman Designs > web: http://www.spiderwebwoman.com/resources/ > > > "Murray" <forums@HAHAgreat-web-sights.com> wrote in message > news:ul6mtz58GHA.1248@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... >>A valid and complete doctype will not affect your ranking, but it will >>affect your site's rendering in the browsers (perhaps negatively, if you >>have used invalid/proprietary markup). >> >> Use this one for HTML 4.01 Transitional - >> >> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" >> "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> >> >> >> -- >> Murray >> -------------- >> MVP FrontPage >> >> >> "basiccl" <basiccl@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >> news:8B6912BD-048D-4CC8-A88F-2830B98E70EB@microsoft.com... >>>I use fp2000.
