Doctypes

J

I am trying to add a DOCTYPE to my HTML and if and when I
work out WHICH I need - I am not certain where to put it.

Currently I have the following at the beginning and wonder
whether I leave this in place or not?

<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml"
xmlns:blush:="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:blush:ffice:blush:ffice"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">

<head>

Many thanks for any advice - as I really am completely
baffled!

Leave that tag (there because you probably assigned categories to the pages)
Insert the DOCTYPE as the very 1st tag above all tags as say
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
To decide which doctype to use see
