One of the more frustrating (and less well-known) aspects of the newer browsers (version 6+) is the way it performs in the absence of a DOCTYPE. You may have written your XHTML document 100% correctly, but without a DOCTYPE, the browsers will render it as though you\'d written it in non-standards compliant HTML. This \"quirky\" mode is how the browser manufacturer\'s have solved the problem of continuing to support older browser modes while remaining standards compliant.
