FP2003 adding HTML+Body tags when doctype declared

G

Guest

I am working on an Intranet where none of the pages have DOCTYPE declarations
and I created one that does. Each time I open it for editing in FP2003 an
extra <HTML> and <BODY> tag are added (including closing tags at foot of
document). This has the effect of displaying an extra set of the standard
shred borders.
I can delete them, but it is driving me mad - can anyone explain why this is
hapening and what I can do to stop it?
Thank you
Iain

Are you using include pages on your site? If so, remove the html, body,
head, /head, /body, /html tags from the included pages or use serer-side
includes and do the same thing

Do not remove those tags, if use the FP Include Page component

Not quite sure about the include pages - I was given a template that already
had corporate left and top shared borders for navigation and used it to start
our department site. Each page has to include the corporate stuff and I get
the remainder to play with, however some css I was using didn't work until I
tried the doctype declaration and now I have this annoying problem.
